Law

The Small Business Administration must follow a government watchdog’s steps to fix risks in its new computer system.
Within 180 days, it has to send Congress a plan for how it will manage tech projects and protect against cyber threats.
The plan must map out risks, set priorities, include project schedules and cost estimates, and tie fixes to clear actions.
Security experts must help pick contractors, and every project must track risks from start to finish.
After sending the plan, the agency must brief Congress within 30 days so services to small businesses become safer and more reliable.
