The Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulations has issued a compliance date of March 1, 2010 for the new regulations, MA 201 CMR 17.00 - Information Protection.

Over the last year, Centrend has been conducting compliance audits and participating in various panel discussions and will continue to lead workshops on compliance. Although the new regulations are more widely known by business leaders, we are still observing a large number of organizations that need to take action for compliance. Whether the concerns are administrative or technical, these organizations need to formulate action plans now.

This is important. In addition to holding ourselves responsible for protecting the personal information of potentially millions of citizens, organizations will face heavy fines for non-compliance.

Centrend is offering help and free guidance to any organization challenged by this initiative. Click here for more details and to register for a free webinar on compliance presented by Centrend. Additional dates and times will be added as needed.
