New Privacy Law in New York

Just and FYI, a new blog post on the NY Shield Law was posted yesterday. The article was put together by Paul Lanois, SSCP and Eric Tierling, CISSP.

To me, it seems like most of these new laws are just to get companies to start following best practices and other things they should have been doing all along.

I have to agree with you.....maybe an eye opener for those that control the purse strings.

Uh, sadly.

Being a consultant it seems a lot of company only do what they should be doing if its forced on them by either their clients or regulations.

And then you have the ones who instead of doing a risk analysis (more time & $$$) to determine what they should do, instead want to do the bare minimum as forced by the clients/regulations.

Its the compliance vs security mindset.

I have consulted for many years and it depends if they just have you come in to implement / fix something or if they have you come in to run things. I set the direction of how and where their IT was going and it allowed me to incorporate proper security right from the beginning.
