Verizon Concerned About Proposed Data Breach Rules

Verizon agrees with concerns that CTIA and USTelecom raised on draft data breach rules, teed up for a Wednesday FCC commissioner vote (see 2312070034), said a filing posted Friday in docket 22-21. A Verizon representative spoke with an aide to Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel. “The description in the draft of what constitutes ‘sensitive personal information’ is extremely broad and is inconsistent with other data breach reporting and privacy regimes,” Verizon said.
