The proposed legislation establishes the Office of Cybersecurity Infrastructure within the Executive Branch of the State Government of New Jersey. This office will operate independently of the Department of the Treasury and will be responsible for creating and implementing cybersecurity policies, monitoring technology infrastructure for secure interactions between nonprofit and private organizations and residents, and developing artificial intelligence (AI) policies for safe integration into professional practices. The office will be directed by a Chief Officer of Cybersecurity Infrastructure, who will report directly to the Governor and will be appointed to serve at the Governor's pleasure.

The Chief Officer will have the authority to appoint up to six Deputy Officers to assist in various aspects of cybersecurity planning, coordination, and management. The Chief Officer, in consultation with other key technology and cybersecurity officials, will establish the internal structure of the office, coordinate cybersecurity operations across state agencies, and draft Service Level Agreements. Additionally, the Chief Officer will be required to provide periodic updates and an annual report on the office's activities and the state of cybersecurity infrastructure to the Governor and the Legislature, with the report made publicly available on the office's website.
