California has had a similar law in effect for a few years - maybe one of
the California Universities can share their experiences as to how it
impacted their environments.

Subject: [SECURITY] Details of New York Data Breach Bill?


According to an Infoworld story datelined last Friday* there is a New York
data breach notification statute scheduled to go into effect next month
that appears to be fairly stringent.

Could someone who is familiar with the statute inform the list about its
provisions, particularly as they might pertain to students who attend
universities in other states but who maintain their NY residency?

Thanks,
