American Cybersecurity Literacy Act

HR 1360, the American Cybersecurity Literacy Act, directs the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information to create a federal public education campaign. The campaign will teach Americans practical cybersecurity skills, including spotting phishing emails, using strong passwords and multi-factor authentication, securing home devices like smart appliances and Wi-Fi routers, and safely using public Wi-Fi networks. It requires the materials to be available in multiple languages and formats to reach all Americans. The bill focuses solely on raising public awareness, with no new regulations or requirements for businesses or individuals.
