COMPLIANCE

It seems that almost every week a new piece of legislation is enacted or an existing statute extended to apply additional protections to personally identifiable information (PII) stored and handled in digital form. Even more frequently, an accidental or deliberate breach of data protection is in the news.

The results of such breaches can be far-reaching. Organizations must not only bear the expense of fines and damage-limitation operations, but also the resulting loss of shareholder and customer confidence, the impact on reputation, brand, and stock market valuation, even the potential for criminal sanctions against company executives. It does not matter whether breaches are accidental or deliberate; what matters is that the organization is perceived to have failed in its responsibility to care for personal and confidential information.
