The article from MSN discusses the introduction of the Deterring America's Technological Adversaries (DATA) Act by Senators Joni Ernst (R-IA) and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH).

The act proposes measures to strengthen cybersecurity, protect critical infrastructure, and ensure that the U.S. can effectively retaliate against cyberattacks.
