Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB) Act of 1999

The GLB Act (also known as the Financial Modernization Act of 1999), includes provisions to protect consumers' personal financial information held by financial institutions. There are three principal parts to the privacy requirements: the Financial Privacy Rule, the Safeguards Rule and pretexting provisions.

GLB affects financial institutions (banks, securities firms, insurance companies), as well as companies providing financial products and services to consumers (including lending, brokering or servicing any type of consumer loan; transferring or safeguarding money;

preparing individual tax returns; providing financial advice or credit counseling; providing residential real estate settlement services; collecting consumer debts).

Key requirements/provisions: The privacy requirements of GLB include three principal parts:

• The Financial Privacy Rule: Requires financial institutions to give customers privacy notices that explain its information collection and sharing practices. In turn, customers have the right to limit some sharing of their information. Financial institutions and other companies that receive personal financial information from a financial institution may be limited in their ability to use that information.

• The Safeguards Rule: Requires all financial institutions to design, implement and maintain safeguards to protect the confidentiality and integrity of personal consumer information.

• Pretexting provisions: Protect consumers from individuals and companies that obtain their personal financial information under false pretenses, including fraudulent http://csrc.nist.gov/drivers/documents/FISMA-final.pdf http://www.dhs.gov/federal-information-security-management-act-fisma http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/SMA/fisma/overview.html http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/SMA/fisma/ http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/PubsSPs.html

Health Information Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA)

HIPAA has two major arms: Privacy and Security. Privacy tends to be a business (non-IT) focus, involving the program, HIPAA Privacy Officer and legal. Security tends to be more IT-focused (though it does cover handling of paper records as well).

Many health agencies have compliance requirements that are more stringent than HIPAA - HIPAA is the baseline. For example, NYS Public Health law has tight requirements regarding AIDS information. The Federal 42 CFR Part 2 guides privacy requirements of substance abuse information. NYS Mental Hygiene law extends HIPAA consent requirements.

Accordingly, meeting baseline HIPAA requirements may not be sufficient in all cases.

Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Ac t

The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act, enacted in 2009, promotes the adoption and meaningful use of health information technology. Subtitle D of the HITECH Act addresses the privacy and security concerns associated with the electronic transmission of health information, in part, through several provisions that strengthen the civil and criminal enforcement of the HIPAA rules.

Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (SOX)

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act is designed to protect investors and the public by increasing the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures. It was enacted after the high-profile Enron and WorldCom financial scandals of the early 2000s. It is administered by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which publishes SOX rules and requirements defining audit requirements and the records businesses should store and for how long. It affects U.S. public company boards, management and public accounting firms.

The Act is organized into 11 titles:

1. Public Company Accounting Oversight https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php?agreements=pcidss&association=pcidss https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php?agreements=pcidss&association=pcidss https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php?agreements=pcidss&association=pcidss https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/security_standards/documents.php

The U.S. Electronic Communications Privacy Act, The U.S. Stored Communications Act

The U.S. PATRIOT Act The Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) and the Stored Communications Act (SCA) create statutory privacy rights for people’s electronic communications stored by a third-party service provider in “electronic,” “computer,” “temporary” or “intermediate” storage.

Certain types of electronic communications (unread mail that is newer than 180 days) may only be obtained by law enforcement from a service provider via a search warrant.

Other electronic communications and user information may be more easily obtained by law enforcement from a third party provider by a court order or subpoena. Any communications may be obtained by law enforcement from a third party provider if the end user has provided consent. End users should be careful not to give such consent by clicking through a Terms of Use and/or Privacy Policy or by signing a contract. The PATRIOT Act allows law enforcement to obtain or intercept electronic communications and other end user data from third-party service providers for terrorism investigations using protocols that are less stringent than those that would normally apply.
