Team Telecom — known formally as the Committee for the Assessment of
Foreign Participation in the United States Telecommunications Services
Sector (the Committee) — is a U.S. interagency committee tasked with
reviewing certain foreign investments to abate any national security
risk they pose. Team Telecom often reviews telecommunications license
applications filed before the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
by foreign-owned companies that are trying to operate in the United
States or are endeavoring to connect the United States to foreign
communications networks.

Team Telecom is focused on cybersecurity risks, threats, and
vulnerabilities. Composed of the Department of Defense, the Department
of Homeland Security, and the Department of Justice; the attorney
general chairs Team Telecom. The secretary of state, secretary of the
treasury, secretary of commerce, director of the office of management
and budget, U.S. trade representative, director of national
intelligence, administrator of general services, national security
adviser, assistant to the president for economic policy, director of
the office of science and technology, and chair of the council of
economic advisers serve as advisers to Team Telecom.
