Lege Trend: Western Neighbor Data Breach Bill Applies to All.

Long gone are the days when data breach notifications only applied to retailers, or so says New Mexico.

The Bill: House Bill 15 (2017) The Data Breach Notification Act

What it does:

  • Any person who possess personal information about a New Mexican has 30 days to disclose any data breach
  • Requires the state attorney general office to work with any person who has suffered a data breach that triggers notification to New Mexicans.
