Plain-English Summary

This bill would strengthen computer security protections for the SNAP program (food stamps), which serves millions of low-income Americans, by requiring the Department of Agriculture to implement better safeguards against hacking and data breaches. The changes would help prevent criminals from stealing personal information or fraudulently accessing benefits that eligible families depend on for groceries. The bill is currently under review by the Senate Agriculture Committee.
