"We are still studying the final version of the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Cybersecurity Framework, but they are certainly to be commended for the collaborative, voluntary process they used to build it. However, as the President indicated in his statement, this framework addresses only part of the security challenges.  Passing effective cyber threat information sharing legislation is essential to helping American companies cope with the relentless cyber attacks that they face every day from nation-states like China.”
