Rep. Tom Davis, the ranking Republican on the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, told a CES session via webcam today that passing a data breach bill should be a priority for lawmakers. Davis, who spoke in person here earlier this week, said a string of leaks experienced by government agencies and private sector entities point to the need for such a law. Data breach legislation failed last year despite progress on a handful of competing bills. Davis said he is already working to make such a mandate a reality for the 110th Congress.
