Media Alert: 2010 Personal ID Mandates – Are Businesses Ready?

Iron

Mountain Incorporated (NYSE: IRM), an information management

services company, has made available an on-demand

Webcast for businesses dealing with new personal identification data

encryption requirements that will take effect in 2010 in Nevada and

Massachusetts. Hosted by leading privacy and data protection expert

Charles H. Kennedy of Morrison & Foerster, LLP, the Webcast overviews

the laws, what they mean, and how organizations can address them.

The new standards put forth by Nevada

(Senate Bill 227) and Massachusetts

(201 CMR 17.00), with possible adoption in other states in 2010

govern the collection and transport of personal data, as well as how

that data is stored. Iron Mountain, whose Offsite Tape Vaulting services

and Connected® Backup for PC and Mac are Payment

Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) compliant, already

complies with these standards, offering customers of these solutions

peace of mind.

Mr. Kennedy, who has represented major corporations before the Fair

Trade Commission (FTC) on data security and customer privacy breaches,

will recommend practices for the collection, storage and transport

processes. Attendees of the Webcast will also be able to download a free

e-book on tape encryption.
