Andrew provides great information on Data Laws and Security, including Information on Cyber Security Trends:
Data privacy laws have been implemented at the state level, but currently there is no federal data privacy law covering all 50 states; however, that could soon change. On Wednesday December 12, 2018, a group of 15 U.S. senators, led by Brian Schatz, (D-Hawai’i), introduced the Data Care Act.
The Data Care Act would require all companies that collect personal data of users to take reasonable steps to ensure that information is safeguarded and protected from unauthorized access. Additionally, companies would be required to only use personal data for specific purposes and not in any way that could result in consumers coming to harm.
If passed, the Data Care Act will be enforced by the Federal Trade Commission which will be given the authority to issue financial penalties to companies that fail to comply. State attorneys general will also be authorized to bring civil actions against firms for noncompliance.
“For too long, Americans’ digital privacy has been far from guaranteed, and it is time for Congress to pass legislation providing comprehensive protections for personal information,” wrote the Center for Democracy and Technology in a press release announcing the publication of a discussion draft of the bill.Copy and past this URL for more informaton on this topic:
