Stateline: Alabama Republican Gov. Kay Ivey has signed a bill that makes her state the 50th and final one to enact a consumer data breach notification law.
The measure requires that residents be notified within 45 days after a breach has been discovered if it is reasonably likely to cause substantial harm. The notification could be delayed if it would interfere with a law enforcement investigation.
Until recently, Alabama and South Dakota were the only states that didn’t have data breach notification laws.
