While the laws and rules described above are fairly
recent and frequently seen at the fore-front of prudent technology
and information security risk management, there are a variety of
other laws and rules prior to and after 1996 that address the need
to protect the confidentiality of sensitive information. For example,
the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1970, the Privacy Act of 1974,
the Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, the Electronic Communications
Privacy Act of 1986, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991;
the Drivers Privacy Protection Act of 1994, and the Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act of 1998 all contain specific requirements
about maintaining the confidentiality of customer information.
