A bill to amend title 10, United States Code, to improve recruitment and retention of the cyber workforce of the Department of Defense, and for other purposes.

S. 2605 is a Senate bill that would modify title 10 of the United States Code to strengthen the Department of Defense's ability to recruit and keep cybersecurity professionals on staff. The bill addresses challenges the military faces in competing for skilled cyber workforce talent in a competitive job market.

If enacted, this legislation could make it easier for the Department of Defense to attract and retain experienced cybersecurity experts by adjusting federal employment rules or compensation structures related to cyber positions. This would potentially improve the military's cybersecurity capabilities and readiness. The bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process, having been introduced in the Senate and referred to committee for consideration.
