MDSC 6005 Week3 Assignment: ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION ASSURANCE LAWS
ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION ASSURANCE LAWS
When an organizations collects information on their customers, organization leaders need to ensure compliance with information assurance (IA) laws. There are multiple laws associated with different types of organizational data: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Sarbanes Oxley, Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Data Breach Disclosure Laws, Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA), Gramm Leach Bliley, and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Associated with these types of data security requirements they are several information assurance standards: HIPAA, FERPA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and some commercial standards.
It is important for organizational leaders to have a good understanding of the type of user data the organization will be collecting. Based on the type of customer data the Information Technology Leaders will be able to develop a compliance plan. Once the compliance plan is developed it will be critical to audit the data collected on a regular basis.
