Audit and mitigate foreign cellular modules in DOD systems.
The Blocking Foreign Cellular Modules in Defense Systems Act of 2026 mandates an audit of cellular modules in Department of Defense systems. It defines "covered cellular module" as those produced by entities identified under the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019 or those owned by China. The audit will assess cybersecurity risks and identify modules to mitigate. The Secretary of Defense must submit reports to Congress on the audit and mitigation activities.
