Plain-English Summary

This bill would require the Department of Veterans Affairs to use multi-factor authentication—a security system that requires multiple forms of identification—when veterans call the VA's customer service centers to access their personal information and benefits. The measure aims to protect veterans' sensitive data like medical records and financial information from unauthorized access by requiring callers to verify their identity in more than one way. Veterans would likely need to provide something like a password plus a code sent to their phone or email before speaking with a VA representative about their accounts.
