Quiver AI Summary
The U.S. Senate has unanimously passed the bipartisan 9-8-8 Lifeline Cybersecurity Responsibility Act, introduced by Senators Alex Padilla and Markwayne Mullin. This legislation aims to enhance the cybersecurity protocols of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline in response to service outages that previously hindered support for individuals in crisis.
“People struggling with their mental health shouldn’t be met with disruptions or service outages,” said Senator Padilla, emphasizing the need for uninterrupted access to help. Senator Mullin echoed the sentiment, noting the importance of increased cybersecurity measures in suicide prevention efforts.
The act requires collaboration between the Lifeline and the Chief Information Security Officer at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to address cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
