Companies are unprepared for California data privacy law

A California law going into effect July 1, 2003, will require companies 
that maintain data on California residents to inform individuals of 
security breaches that may have resulted in the theft of their personal 
information, something companies have been reluctant to do. The law has not 
received much national attention, so many companies affected by the law are 
unaware of its existence. However, the law may convince many companies that 
are aware to tighten their defenses by encrypting data storage, which would 
exempt them from the measure. Tamara Salmon, counsel for the Investment 
Company Institute, representing 9,000 investment companies throughout the 
US, questions the goals of such a law. "What is an individual supposed to 
do with that information?" Instead, she suggests that companies be required 
to inform law enforcement of such breaches.
