The Computer & Communications Industry Association (CCIA) submits the following comments in response to the Department of Commerce Notice of Proposed Rulemaking published in the Federal Register at 89 Fed. Reg. 5698. See attached file of CCIA comments.

Abstract

Executive Order 13984 of January 19, 2021, “Taking Additional Steps To Address the National Emergency With Respect to Significant Malicious Cyber-Enabled Activities,” (EO 13984) directs the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) to propose regulations requiring U.S. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers of IaaS products to verify the identity of their foreign customers, along with procedures for the Secretary to grant exemptions; and authorize special measures to deter foreign malicious cyber actors’ use of U.S. IaaS products. Executive Order 14110 of October 30, 2023, "Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence" (EO 14110) further directs the Secretary to propose regulations that require providers of certain IaaS products to submit a report to the Secretary when a foreign person transacts with that provider or reseller to train a large Artificial Intelligence (AI) model with potential capabilities that could be used in malicious cyber-enabled activity. The Department of Commerce (Department) issues this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) to solicit comment on proposed regulations to implement Sections 1, 2, and 5 of EO 13984 and Section 4 of EO 14110.
