New white paper addresses research findings on the gap between legal obligations and customer expectations in data breach notification and response BEAVERTON, Ore., Aug. 27
BEAVERTON, Ore., Aug. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- With more than 31 percent of
customers terminating their relationship with service providers who have been
hit with a data breach, ID Experts (http://www.idexpertscorp.com) today
announced the availability of its latest white paper, "Playing by the Rules
Could Cost You Your Customers." The white paper addresses the gap between
legal obligations for data breach notification and customers' expectations,
and offers five tips to companies to retain customer loyalty.
While many states have enacted data breach notification laws, a recent
study by the Ponemon Institute
(http://www.idexpertscorp.com/breach/ponemon-study), sponsored by ID Experts,
found that customers are overwhelmingly unsatisfied with the notification and
response of organizations that have compromised their personal information.
"It is evident that customers are dissatisfied with data breach response
regardless of state notification laws," said Rick Kam, president of ID
Experts. "Organizations need to pay close attention to their customers' needs
during this critical response phase to retain revenue and maintain customer
trust."
