Summary

National Cybersecurity Preparedness Consortium Act of 2016 This bill authorizes the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to establish a National Cybersecurity Preparedness Consortium to engage academic, nonprofit, private industry, and federal, state, and local government partners to address cybersecurity risks and incidents, including threats or acts of terrorism. The consortium may: provide training to state and local first responders and officials, develop curriculums, and provide technical assistance; conduct cross-sector cybersecurity training and simulation exercises, including for state and local governments, critical infrastructure owners and operators, and private industry; coordinate with DHS's national cybersecurity and communications integration center to help states and communities develop cybersecurity information sharing programs; and assist in the incorporation of cybersecurity risk and incident prevention and response into existing state and local emergency plans. The consortium shall terminate five years after enactment of this Act.
