- How Secure is your data?
Let us review what we have covered thus far. It has been a while since we discussed this topic (sorry for the extended period of silence and thank you to everyone who checked in during that time. It was just a busy business schedule, but your concern is appreciated). Thus far, we identified a general need for data security and the need for a comprehensive written privacy protection policy relative to personal information. We then started to review the Massachusetts Regulations regarding data security. In Section 1, we looked at the purpose and scope of the Regulations. We then reviewed the definitions within the Regulations and how the Regulations could affect your business even if you have never set foot in Massachusetts.
This article will examine the obligations companies that own or license covered data must take to safeguard that data. These details are found in Section 3 of the Standards For the Protection of Personal Information of Residents of the Commonwealth. If you would like to see the entire set of Regulations, they are available for a free download at the White Space Resource Center.
