California blazes trail again with enhanced breach alert law

[altonius <altonius () gmail com>]

The update, meanwhile, requires that breach notification letters
contain specifics of the incident, including the type of personal
information exposed, a description of what happened, and advice on
steps to take to protect oneself from identity theft. The law also
mandates that organizations that sustain a breach affecting 500 or
more people submit a copy of the alert letter to the state attorney
general's office.
