fcc regulations

The fcc regulations tag brings together coverage of Federal Communications Commission actions affecting communications security and technology procurement. Topics include Emergency Alert System cybersecurity rules taking effect September 29, 2026, with requirements involving EAS equipment, studio-to-transmitter links, remotely managed devices, credential changes, security patching, equipment inventories, and network protection. The tag also covers FCC Covered List restrictions on new foreign-made humanoid and quadruped robots and power inverters identified as national-security risks. These decisions may influence broadcaster security work, equipment management, supplier choices, and procurement for AI infrastructure, including products made outside the United States regardless of the manufacturer’s nationality.
