The US Department of Commerce's Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is seeking public input by March 4 on a proposed rule aimed at addressing security risks associated with China and Russia in the information and communication technology and services (ICTS) sector, which are integral to the supply chain for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), or drones.

The move comes after Beijing announced export bans on 28 American companies, including Raytheon, Boeing and Lockheed Martin, to safeguard national security and interests. US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo has emphasized the importance of securing the drone technology supply chain to protect sensitive US data.
