HR 9152 requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to run a two-year pilot program testing stronger login security, including multi-factor authentication, on up to three of its busiest online platforms. Eligible platforms include the disability claims system, health care enrollment portal, education benefits system, and home loan benefits system. The program must use commercially available, federally certified technology and apply stricter login requirements based on how sensitive or risky a given transaction is.
Veterans and their family members who use VA digital services are most directly affected. Rural veterans, veterans with disabilities, and those with limited computer skills receive specific attention under the program's review requirements.
The program is intended to reduce fraud and improper payments by making unauthorized account access harder. The bill also requires that new login systems not create unnecessary barriers for the veterans they serve.
