What it does
The RECOVER PII Act would extend identity protection coverage for individuals whose personally identifiable information was compromised in federal agency data breaches, making such coverage available for the remainder of the affected individual’s life and including at least $5 million in identity theft insurance. It would also allow federal agencies to reimburse employees or contractors for up to 100% of the costs of privacy-enhancing services, such as software or tools that reduce privacy risks, provided proper documentation is submitted. The bill amends the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017 to implement these changes.
