A New MA law will make every Outfitter’s life a pain

A new Massachusetts Data Security Law is causing a firestorm across the business world as it applies to any company that gathers information about ANY Massachusetts resident, no matter where the company is located.

The law requires companies to take measures to protect consumer data, evaluate possible risks to their stores of personal data and create a detailed plan for keeping that data safe.

Businesses in Massachusetts are fighting the law tooth and nail as it will require them to take a number of steps to fall into compliance. What many businesses around the country don’t know is that they will also be liable to protect the data of their Massachusetts customers.

The law is a hot-button topic in Massachusetts and its spread will ignite a similar firestorm around the nation.
