US State Information Security Laws

State Information Security Laws Are Becoming Common 

Do you do business with customers out of state? Do you know if those states have laws pertaining to their residents? 

 

These States Have Laws Governing IT Security Minimum Requirements

California	Massachusetts	Minnesota	Nevada	Oregon	Washington
CA SB1386	MA 201CMR17.00	Plastic Card Security Act	NV SB227	OR ORS646.200	WA HB1149

Why should you take these state-level Information Security laws seriously? The reason is simple: A single negligent breach can close your business forever, because liability insurance will not cover professional negligence. Without the ability to prove steps were taken to ensure due care and due diligence were applied to your business operations, you may be considered negligent in a lawsuit. Additionally, Information Security policies are a tool that you can use to enforce proper conduct by your employees.
