Notes/Comments:
Both federal and state regulators have expanded their campaigns against companies that fail to secure customer data or fail to advise consumers when breaches of information security have occurred. The new enforcement strategy, which targets companies that have given no assurances to consumers about information protection, is signaled by enforcement actions recently announced by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC” or “Commission”) and the Ohio Attorney General.
