Three National Data Breach Notification Legislative Proposals Issued

Posted on May 19, 2011 by Dissent

Craig Hoffman writes:

So far this month, three legislative proposals containing a national data breach notification requirement have been issued.  On May 4, Rep. Bobby L. Rush (D-Ill.) reintroduced the Data Accountability and Trust Act.  On May 11, Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.) introduced the Data Accountability and Trust Act (DATA) of 2011.  One day later, the White House released a Cybersecurity Legislative Proposal.

The three proposals are built on a framework similar to many of the state breach notification laws.  All three would preempt the breach notification laws in 46 states and the District of Columbia.
