At the same time, state governments are demonstrating their own fervor for data security by enacting privacy laws modeled on California SB 1386. These new laws, such as the Massachusetts Data Privacy Law taking effect on January 1, 2010, compel enterprises to protect individuals' data at rest and in motion and to disclose any security lapse, even small lapses that previously would have been overlooked.
