This legislation directs the Secretary of Commerce to conduct a comprehensive study on the impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) technology on the security of telecommunications networks. The study will analyze how AI can significantly improve network security through features like real-time threat detection, enhanced resiliency, and improved energy efficiency, and its application with Open Radio Access Network and virtualized security technologies. It will also assess how AI can strengthen network security controls, such as firewalls and segmentation. Crucially, the study is also tasked with identifying any inherent risks that AI technology might pose to telecommunications network security. Following consultation with the FCC and industry stakeholders, a detailed report with potential legislative recommendations must be submitted to Congress within one year after an opportunity for public comment.
