    About this event

    You can’t effectively manage human resources without gathering, storing and using confidential personal information. If you gather and store that information you also need to protect it from all the bad people who are trying to get into your data storage so they can take your employees’ personal information or hold it for ransom. Those are in addition to the people who may stumble on the same information because somebody let the kids and their friends log on to the work laptop that was supposed to be used only for work but was just sitting there untended with the password taped to the bottom.

    You need to know what Oregon law requires employers to do If (when?) any of this happens to you.

    This presentation is intended to cover the basics of complying with the legal requirements that follow an “unauthorized acquisition of computer data that materially compromised the security, confidentiality or integrity of personal information that a person maintains or possesses.” It will cover:

    What data are protected?

    Notice requirements (and where to get your hands on a good template).

    When does the state need to know what happened ?

    Helping your employees get through it.

    Got unions? What does that mean?

    Also: a little bit of what to do so you don’t have to deal with this again.
