Massachusetts recently enacted laws requiring businesses to institute certain compliance measures to secure personal information that can be used to perpetrate identity theft. The Massachusetts law applies to a business located anywhere in the United States that stores or maintains personal information about a Massachusetts resident.

The personal information at issue includes Social Security numbers, driver’s license and financial account numbers when stored in combination with a person’s name. Businesses that own, license, store or maintain personal information about a Massachusetts resident must be in full compliance with this regulation on or before March 1, 2010, including implementing a comprehensive, written information security program for personal information.  This affects almost every Massachusetts business.  Please join us for this important informative seminar.
