Senate Passes Bill to Strengthen DHS Public & Private Cybersecurity Efforts
The United States Senate passed bipartisan legislation introduced by Senators Rob Portman (R-OH) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH) to bolster cybersecurity in the public and private sector.
The bipartisan Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cyber Hunt and Incident Response Teams Act would require that the Department of Homeland Security make permanent “cyber hunt” and “cyber incident response” teams to work to help prevent cyberattacks at all levels of government and the private sector, and help mitigate the impact of attacks when they occur.
