Kathleen A. McGee, former Bureau Chief of the New York Attorney General’s Bureau of Internet and Technology and author of New York State’s SHIELD Act on data security, discusses executive obligations to disclose data breaches in Global Data Review in light of the recent conviction of Uber’s former Chief Security Officer for obstructing justice. McGee notes: “Lying to investigators about matters regardless of if they are [concerning] security or something else is itself a federal offence, … Plainly put, this should be a path no one should have to cross again but it certainly should be a reminder, [of whether] you are in the middle of an investigation with a state or federal regulator, you must take that seriously and you must not conceal.” She adds that requiring data professionals to report to the chief executive, chief legal officer, and board of directors regarding data security incidents “requires the C-suite to effectively take responsibility for data security going forward.”
