Department of Commerce: Securing the Information and Communications Technology and Services Supply Chain

Skip to Highlights

Highlights

GAO reviewed Department of Commerce's (Commerce) new rule entitled "Securing the Information and Communications Technology and Services Supply Chain." GAO found that the final rule finalizes Commerce's practices for its review of transactions involving information and communications technology and services designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of a foreign adversary that may pose undue or unacceptable risk to the United States or U.S. persons.

Enclosed is our assessment of Commerce's compliance with the procedural steps required by section 801(a)(1)(B)(i) through (iv) of title 5 with respect to the rule. If you have any questions about this report or wish to contact GAO officials responsible for the evaluation work relating to the subject matter of the rule, please contact Charlie McKiver, Assistant General Counsel, at (202) 512-5992.
