Assess the scope and depth of privacy protection rights that a citizen has by being a resident of a
state. Write down the name of your state, and then identify the following for your state’s breach
notification law:
Who or what does the law in your state protect?
Does the law include both for profit and nonprofit organizations?
Does the law have a financial penalty assessed to the negligent party if proven guilty?
Does your state require the organization to publicly announce a breach to the media?
Does your state notification law take into account encrypted data or doesn’t it matter whether
the data is encrypted or not encrypted?
Does your state’s law define the amount of time an organization has to publicly announce that
a breach has occurred? If yes, specify the time. If no, describe how your state handles this.
