However, in an effort to ensure greater cybersecurity preparedness, U.S. Sen. Jack Reed (D-R.I.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) introduced the Cybersecurity Disclosure Act of 2015 to Congress in December 2015.

At this point, the Cybersecurity Disclosure Act is still far from becoming the law, but the fact that Congress has taken notice of the matter underscores how seriously the cyberthreat is regarded.
