Food and Agriculture Industry Cybersecurity Support Act
This bill creates an online cybersecurity clearinghouse within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to support food and agriculture businesses. The clearinghouse will provide free, publicly available resources - including annual FAQs, ransomware response guides, and small business tools - specifically for farms, processors, distributors, and their IT systems. It will consolidate voluntary cybersecurity recommendations covering system protection, incident response, and data security for the industry. The bill also mandates a government study on current cybersecurity efforts in the sector, to be completed within 90 days of enactment.
