  5. Getting Started • Recognize that a defensible standard of care requires us to establish a baseline for compliance: • “Define an ISMS policy in terms of the characteristics of the business…that: takes into account business and legal or regulatory requirements and contractual security obligations”. ISO/IEC 27001:2005 Clause 4.2.1(b)2. • Consider a basic list pertinent to our case study1 on the following page: 1 See handout. Note:PCI is not named as a primary because our case study does not involve payment card information

  6. Dynamic, Yet: Expectation of Due Care No Plausible Deniability Minimal Harmonization Substantial Penalties

  8. Enforcing Privacy Promises: Section 5 of the FTC Act (15 USC §§ 41-58 as amended (aka unfair and deceptive business practices) amended 1996 Financial Modernization Act (aka Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act) 1999 California SB 1386 for Breach Notification (45 states) incl.

  9. Automated Tools are Necessary • Legicrawler was created to save time and cost in while tracking legislative updates • Roughly 250,000 new bills introduce nationwide every legislative cycle • Annual cost for tracking is at least an order of magnitude less with automated tools • Added benefits: completeness, timeliness, validity

  10. Methodology for Identifying Legislative and Regulatory Items • Identify industry - e.g. insurance is part of financial services • Identify the key areas for regulatory/legislative compliance that are part of the business process • Collection of SSN • Storage and transmittal of any record that contains at least name and address • Check FTC site for updates and links • If you have access to tools like Westlaw or Lexis-Nexis, use them • If necessary, visit AG site in every state and search on “privacy, security” and follow the threads • Once the baseline is established, utilize automated tools to keep it current!

  11. Aha! New Legislation • Alaska (eff 7/1/09) SB 133 §18.23.310 Statewide Health Information Exchange System, Info Confidentiality • Louisiana (eff 7/6/09) HB 347 Confidentiality of Health Information • Massachusetts (eff 3/1/10) 201 CMR 17 Safeguarding Personal Information • Maine (eff 6/12/09) LD 1490 Provides for individuals’ rights to prohibit transfer of their healthcare information • Nevada (3/1/10) Requires encryption of data and compliance with PCI • Texas (eff 9/1/09) Breach of sensitive personal information and protected health information. • Washington (eff 7/26/09) Secure exchange of health information

  13. How This Gets Used • Keep current on legislation that could have a significant impact on security budget planning (e.g. NV encryption/PCI statute) • Provide for an informed dialogue between IT and Company Counsel, and professional associations • Provide a basis for an informed action plan early in legislative lifecycle • Supports the assertion of due diligence to a defensible standard of care relative to regulatory and legislative tracking
