With data serving as the lifeblood of modern business, there exists the constant threat of theft, both internally and externally. Thinking about how your company works, how it gathers the information and how it safeguards it are probably the three biggest issues your company will currently face. There has been an onus placed on companies and the integrity of their protocols and policies to the safeguarding of collected data. Congress has leapt into the fray with the data security bill in 2006 and the Personal Data Privacy and Security Act of 2007, but neither pieces of legislation have been adopted. Without blanket legislation from the top, state regulations and statutes vary. Nonetheless, James Vann, attorney, Vann & Sheridan LLP, recommends that first and foremost, businesses deve...

Two privacy legislation bills were recently introduced that, if passed, could affect the way businesses maintain and safeguard data. The Senate's Personal Data Privacy and Security Act of 2007 and the House's Data Accountability and Trust Act both focus on protecting consumers' personally identifiable information: how data is stored and procedures in the event of a security breach. This article will focus on the Senate's bill. The bill, S.495, is known as the Personal Data Privacy and Security Act of 2007. The legislation would increase criminal penalties for identity theft involving electronic personal data and make it a crime to intentionally or willfully conceal a security breach involving personal data.

Hacked computer networks, lost and stolen laptops containing personal information and the horror stories of consumers' financial losses and headaches of trying to recover from having their identities stolen have permeated the news media for the last few years. The issue of data security has risen to prominence as consumers' fear related to the issue has soared. Although the last Congress grappled with about 25 bills addressing the issue of data security, no major legislation on the subject was enacted. The issue, because of its importance to the general public, quickly entered the legislative queue in the new 110th Congress with about a dozen House and Senate bills on data security currently pending. For National Association of Credit Management, the major concern is ensuring that any n...

The Supreme Court has held that an individual relinquishes any Fourth Amendment interest in information that he or she voluntarily discloses to a third party. Known as the "Third Party Doctrine," this controversial rule is increasingly problematic in an age where a large proportion of personal communications and transactions are carried out over the Internet. Internet users expose virtually all of the information they generate online-e-mails, web-surfing histories, search terms, and more-to online service providers. As such, many scholars have assumed that Internet information will be unprotected by the Fourth Amendment. Yet the information disclosed to these online third parties is generally not exposed to human beings at all; rather, it is processed entirely by automated equipment. Ne...
