LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2026 — Federal procurement rules, cybersecurity labeling programs and a White House executive order expected as soon as this month were already reshaping how governments and companies built trust in artificial intelligence and connected devices, U.S. and foreign officials said Tuesday at CES, as autonomous AI systems moved from experimentation into real-world use.

The comments came during the "Trusted Tech: Securing Innovation in a Connected World" panel. In it, David Grossman, vice president of regulatory affairs at the Consumer Technology Association, said that it had been reported that the Trump administration was preparing to release a new national cybersecurity strategy, potentially accompanied by an executive order or national security memorandum later in January.

He asked panelists what they would like to see in the plan.
