Problem: Securing private information 
is critical for individuals and 
mandatory for business.

California’s SB 1386 mandates the notification of 
California residents in the event of unauthorized 
acquisition of their “personal information” that is 

stored in an electronic format. Personal information 

includes the first and last name and either a social 

security number; drivers license number, account 

number, credit or debit card number, along with the 

security codes, passwords or access codes that 

would allow access to an individual’s account. 

Fortunately, California’s SB 1386 has made 

allowances when this sensitive data has been 

encrypted; this includes data on mobile devices 

like the Aegis Padlock. If users are issued an Aegis 

Padlock for storing sensitive or personal customer 

data and the drive is lost or stolen, reporting the 

security breach is not required. 

The exposure of personal information is not limited to 

portable devices. Corporate networks are also at risk 

of unauthorized access to this information. When a 

breach of security occurs, consumers will ultimately 

lose confidence, the company suffering damage to 

their reputation and financial losses. Enterprises are 

faced with a multitude of attacks and must make 

funding decisions on how best to increase their 

security infrastructure. Therefore, security products 

like the Aegis Padlock that protect access to and 

encrypt data on portable drive should be considered 

when making budget decisions.
