It amends existing laws to establish mandatory minimum prison sentences and significant fines for individuals and organizations involved in such activities. Specifically, it defines ‘severe harm’ to national security and introduces enhanced penalties for offenses targeting critical infrastructure. The bill seeks to deter espionage and protect sensitive information from being exploited by foreign governments.
