Bill overview
The Protecting Consumer Information Act of 2019 directs the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to review and potentially update its cybersecurity standards for consumer reporting agencies and their service providers. The bill requires the FTC to investigate compliance with these standards and revise regulations if necessary to ensure adequate protection against cyber attacks. It also strengthens the FTC’s enforcement powers and allows state attorneys general to take action on behalf of residents if they believe consumer information is at risk.
