The Executive Order issued by President Biden on February 28, 2024, aims to prevent access to Americans' bulk sensitive personal data and U.S. government-related data by countries of concern. It expands the scope of a national emergency declared in a previous executive order and addresses the threat posed by certain countries' efforts to access sensitive data. The order outlines policies to restrict such access when it poses a national security risk, while supporting open data flows and maintaining vital relationships with other countries. It also details prohibited and restricted transactions, sets forth measures to protect sensitive personal data, and outlines steps to assess and mitigate national security risks arising from prior data transfers.
