Reuters exclusively reports software vendors would have to disclose breaches to U.S. government users under new order

Reuters exclusively reported that a planned Biden administration executive order will require many software vendors to notify their federal government customers when the companies have a cybersecurity breach. Following the SolarWinds Corp hack, which came to light in December, the order would adopt measures long sought by security experts, including requiring multi-factor authentication and encryption of data inside federal agencies.
