Cyber Threats

The Cybersecurity and Emerging Threats (CSET) team promotes reasonable federal and state data security and privacy reforms to protect personal information, shield against identity theft, and strengthen consumer confidence, while discouraging government overreach. Most notably, the CSET team is in favor of establishing a national data security and data privacy law to reduce data security and national security risks, promote global competitiveness, and provide all Americans with privacy protections.
