Secure 5G Technologies: International Support and Data Protection.

This act aims to ensure that international financial institutions support the development of wireless technologies, such as 5G, only if they are secure for users. This means that U.S. taxpayer money will not support technologies that could jeopardize data privacy or security. The goal is to promote global security standards in new technologies.
Key points
Financial support for wireless technologies, including 5G, will only be provided if they ensure appropriate user security.
The United States will actively encourage investments in infrastructure and policy reforms that facilitate the use of secure advanced wireless technologies.
Cooperation with allies and partners aims to strengthen international support for secure technologies.
These provisions have a limited duration, up to 7 years, unless deemed unnecessary for national interest sooner.
