Lucia knows that her state has regulations that regulate her organization's conduct in the event of a Personally Identifiable Information (PII) breach, involving Social Security numbers (SSNs). If her organization experiences a breach that affects SSNs, what measures is she expected to take under state law?

State laws frequently comprise specific criteria and protocols that organizations must adhere to in the event of a data breach. Lucia should verify that she is knowledgeable about the breach laws of her state as well as any other states or countries where her company operates, and that her incident response plans include adequate procedures in case of a breach. Organizations that handle data such as SSNs will most likely not delete the data even if a breach occurs, reclassifying data would not be helpful unless the data was wrongly classified before the breach, and data minimization plans are employed to reduce the amount of data an organization holds, not to respond directly to a breach.
