3 Reasons a State Chamber of Commerce Supported a Data Security Bill

What did the Michigan Chamber of Commerce tout as reasons to support a Data Security bill, HB 6405 (MI | 2018) that required businesses to do certain new tasks concerning data breaches:

  • The Chamber likes a specific time frame to notify affected persons
    • The chamber did not like phrasing, within a reasonable time
  • Is ok with “reasonable mandates” on businesses
  • The Chamber supports “.. a consumers’ right to know that their personal identifying information was compromised”
