The risks are too great for no action. Erroneous or fraudulent exposure of sensitive information can expose the business to substantial financial loss, damage to its reputation, weaker shareholder value, civil fines and enforcement actions, significant business disruption in responding to such events, and potential bankruptcy. Companies must encrypt sensitive data.

Complying with New State Data Privacy Legislation

Event held Tuesday, June 23, 2009

From Massachusetts to Nevada, states are getting tough on the requirements for protecting the personal information of their residents. Personal information includes driver's license numbers, social security numbers, financial account numbers or credit/debit card numbers. State legislation has evolved from data breach notification requirements to the prevention of data loss through the implementation of strict security policies. For instance, the recently enacted Massachusetts Protection of Personal Information act requires companies to develop and deploy a comprehensive security program that includes the management of all end user devices, including laptops, smartphones and other portable devices.

By attending this eSeminar, you will hear a panel of experts discuss the challenges of complying with this next generation of state legislation. Learn some key differences between the states and how certain state laws can affect your business, regardless of your state of incorporation. You will also learn more about the role of encryption in protecting mobile data and how GuardianEdge can help you centrally-manage data protection on all of your endpoints –laptops, personal computers, USB flash drives and other removable storage devices, portable media (CDs/DVDs/floppies), as well as PDAs, iPhones and smartphones.
