Florida S0692 establishes cybersecurity standards for local governments and vendors, and limits liability for cybersecurity incidents.

Florida S0692 mandates that local governments adopt cybersecurity standards set by the Florida Digital Service. It prohibits the Department of Management Services from delegating this authority. Vendors must comply with NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 unless state or federal laws require otherwise. The bill limits liability for local governments, covered entities, and third-party agents if they substantially comply with cybersecurity standards or frameworks, disaster recovery plans, and multi-factor authentication.
