Using an unordered list, summarize the following article with between 4 and 8 key points. The Subcommittee on Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection, led by Chairman Andy Ogles (R-TN), will hold a hearing today to examine how the United States can strengthen its approach to offensive cyber operations as part of a broader national security framework, including the evolving roles of federal agencies and the private sector.
\nAs cyber operations become central tools of statecraft and conflict, and as adversaries such as the People\u2019s Republic of China (PRC), Russia, and Iran continue targeting U.S. networks and infrastructure with increasingly sophisticated campaigns, it is critical that the U.S. government maintain a proactive, coordinated, and forward-leaning cyber posture. This hearing will examine the operational, legal, and policy frameworks that shape offensive cyber activities across the federal government, including how agencies and industry partners can clarify roles and responsibilities, coordinate effectively, and ensure that efforts to enhance cyber disruption capabilities strengthen the security and resilience of the homeland.
