House passes Cybersecurity threat information sharing bill
The United States House of Representatives has approved a controversial cyber bill that would encourage companies to share information about computer attacks with the federal government.
On Wednesday afternoon, lawmakers in the House voted 307-116 in favor of the Protecting Cyber Networks Act. It envisions expanded legal liability protections for corporations if they choose to voluntarily share certain kinds of digital data through a government “cyber portal” administered by the Department of Homeland Security.
