Lab #6 – Identifying the Scope of Your State’s (location’s) Data
and Security Breach Notification Law
Currently, 47 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the
Virgin Islands have data and security breach notification laws that define what
organizations must do if they have had data or security breached that impact
citizen privacy data. The National Conference of State Legislatures (NCSL)
Web site tracks and organizes telecommunication and information technology
state legislation. Review the NCSL Web site and data and security breach
notification laws for each state listed at

You are a cybersecurity manager at ABC organization. Your Chief Information
Security Officer (CISO) comes to your office and asks if you are familiar with
this site and how it might affect the way ABC does business in the different
states where ABC is licensed to do business. He has asked you to create a
presentation for a meeting to introduce the executives of the organization to
this site and report on the organizations responsibilities for breach notification
for the region where you are the cybersecurity manager. Locate your state in
the list on the NCSL website above. If you live outside of the United States
locate a similar law for where you are a resident.

Lab #7 – Digital Milennium Copyright Act: Napster
Review the following case study on the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and
Napster.
Napster was a company that used peer-to-peer networking to provide a filesharing service that gave users the ability to share music. The company
existed only from June 1999 to July 2001.
In December 1999 the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) took
legal action against Napster for copyright infringements. RIAA, the plaintiff
represented all major record labels in this action. It claimed that Napster
violated “exclusive rights for reproduction and distribution of their copyright
works.” RIAA claimed that Napster made a “direct” infringement on its
copyright and that it was liable for “contributory infringement of the plaintiff’s
copyright and for “vicarious infringement of the plaintiff’s copyright.” The law
stopped Napster from continuing its operations is the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act that was enacted in 1998. The act addresses treaties signed in
1996 at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Geneva
conference and it contains other provisions. Software and entertainment
industries supported the law, but many others opposed it, including
academics, scientists, and librarians.
