YADSB (Yet Another Data Security Bill)..

Looks like the lawmakers are gettting serious (maybe they always were) about data breach legislation. Rep. William Clay has just introduced a new bill , H.R. 4791, to address some of these issues. This follows previously failed starts, in June, with a similar proposal from Rep. Tom Davis.

We conducted a consumer survey of approximately 400 consumers during the Black Friday post-Thanksgiving shopping season and found that many favored a single federal law compared to the myriad of state laws on the issue. Makes sense...

Have not looked at the full details of the proposed bill, but am looking forward to finding out more. Let me know if you have thoughts on this specific bill...
