The Federal Computer Security Act of 2015 will shine light on whether our federal agencies are using the most up-to-date security practices and software to safeguard our nation’s most sensitive information. Given the recent federal data breaches, this bill is critical to getting our computer networks in order and to promoting good cyber hygiene across the federal government.
The security act will require inspectors general to report on the security practices and software used by federal agencies to safeguard classified and personally identifiable information. It will also then instruct the Government Accountability Office to provide a report, including an economic analysis, of any impediments to agency use of effective security software and security devices.
