Summary of Bill S 3594

The SHARE IT Act, also known as Bill 118 s 3594, is a piece of legislation currently being considered by the US Congress. The main goal of this bill is to promote the sharing of information and resources between federal agencies in order to improve cybersecurity and protect against cyber threats.

The SHARE IT Act would require federal agencies to share information about cyber threats and vulnerabilities with each other in a timely manner. This would help to ensure that all agencies are aware of potential threats and can work together to address them effectively.

This office would be responsible for facilitating the sharing of information and resources between agencies, as well as coordinating responses to cyber incidents. Overall, the SHARE IT Act aims to improve the cybersecurity posture of the federal government by promoting collaboration and information sharing among agencies. By working together to address cyber threats, federal agencies can better protect the nation's critical infrastructure and sensitive information from malicious actors.
