Protecting Critical Infrastructure Act

This bill increases punishments for people who commit computer crimes that target critical infrastructure, which includes systems and assets that are so important to the country that damaging them could seriously affect national security, the economy, or public health and safety. Anyone convicted of such a computer crime would face a fine, a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 30 years, or both. The bill also requires the President to punish foreign individuals and organizations who try to hack into critical infrastructure by blocking their assets and visas.
