The Cybersecurity Act of 2012 will finally come up for debate on the Senate floor on July 30. A number of senators say they’ll introduce amendments to tweak the bill to their liking. The bill would need to be reconciled with the House-approved Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act. President Obama says he would veto the measure if Congress fails to enact IT security standards. Other amendments reportedly being considered would strengthen liability protections for businesses that share cyberthreat information with the government and other businesses, toughen data privacy protections, establish a national data breach law.”]
