The Rockefeller-Snowe measure would create the Office of the National Cybersecurity \
Adviser, whose leader would report directly to the president and would coordinate \
defense efforts across government agencies. It would require the National Institute \
of Standards and Technology to establish "measurable and auditable cybersecurity \
standards" that would apply to private companies as well as the government. It also \
would require licensing and certification of cybersecurity professionals.
