Recommendations for Identity Theft Related Data Breach Notification

Follow-up to September 19, 2006 posting, President’s Identity Theft Task Force Announces Interim Recommendations, today OMB issued a memorandum of Recommendations for Identity Theft Related Data Breach Notification, from Clay Johnson, Deputy Director for Management.

  • “We…recommend that each agency identify in advance a core management group that will be convened upon the identification of a potential loss of personal information. This core group would initially evaluate the situation to help guide any further response. Our experience suggests that such a core group should include, at minimum, an agency’s chief information officer, chief legal officer, chief privacy officer (or their designees), a senior management official from the agency, and the agency’s inspector general (or equivalent or designee).”
