Interview with IBM exec on breach notification laws

Posted on May 2, 2006 by Tom Fragala

Computerworld has this interview with Harriet P. Pearson, vice president of corporate affairs and chief privacy officer at IBM. It covers breach notification laws and the growing challenges of managing risk and security.

If you needed any proof that the data breach notification laws have had a major positive impact on privacy, read this quote from Pearson,

CIOs, security people and privacy people are now working closer than ever before. The precipitating event that has brought them closer together has been this requirement that started in California and has now appeared in about 25 additional states to disclose to consumers if there’s a security incident that potentially compromises data about them.
