SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds that--
            (1) databases of personally identifiable information are 
        increasingly prime targets of hackers, identity thieves, rogue 
        employees, and other criminals, including organized and 
        sophisticated criminal operations;
            (2) identity theft is a serious threat to the Nation's 
        economic stability, national security, homeland security, 
        cybersecurity, the development of e-commerce, and the privacy 
        rights of Americans;
            (3) security breaches are a serious threat to consumer 
        confidence, homeland security, national security, e-commerce, 
        and economic stability;
            (4) it is important for business entities that own, use, or 
        license personally identifiable information to adopt reasonable 
        procedures to ensure the security, privacy, and confidentiality 
        of that personally identifiable information;
            (5) individuals whose personal information has been 
        compromised or who have been victims of identity theft should 
        receive the necessary information and assistance to mitigate 
        their damages and to restore the integrity of their personal 
        information and identities;
            (6) data misuse and use of inaccurate data have the 
        potential to cause serious or irreparable harm to an 
        individual's livelihood, privacy, and liberty and undermine 
        efficient and effective business and government operations;
            (7) government access to commercial data can potentially 
        improve safety, law enforcement, and national security; and
            (8) because government use of commercial data containing 
        personal information potentially affects individual privacy, 
        and law enforcement and national security operations, there is 
        a need for Congress to exercise oversight over government use 
        of commercial data.

                        security breach, unless the business entity or 
                        agency requests an extension of time and the 
                        Federal Trade Commission determines in writing

National Security Purposes.--
            (1) In general.--If the United States Secret Service or the 
        Federal Bureau of Investigation determines that the

        notification shall be delayed upon written notice from the 
        United States Secret Service or the Federal Bureau of 
        Investigation to the agency or business entity that experienced 
        the breach. The notification from the United States Secret

        necessary.
            (3) Law enforcement immunity.--No non-constitutional cause

                    (A) the United States Secret Service or the Federal 
                Bureau of Investigation determines that notification of 
                the security breach could be expected to reveal 
                sensitive sources and methods or similarly impede the 
                ability of the Government to conduct law enforcement 
                investigations; or
                    (B) the Federal Bureau of Investigation determines 
                that notification of the security breach could be 
                expected to cause damage to the national security.
            (2) Immunity.--No non-constitutional cause of action shall 
        lie in any court against any Federal agency for acts relating 
        to the exemption from notification for law enforcement or 
        national security purposes under this title.
    (b) Safe Harbor.--
            (1) In general.--An agency or business entity shall be 
        exempt from the notice requirements under section 211, if--
                    (A) a risk assessment conducted by the agency or 
                business entity concludes that, based upon the 
                information available, there is no significant risk 
                that a security breach has resulted in, or will result 
                in, identity theft, economic loss or harm, or physical 
                harm to the individuals whose sensitive personally 
                identifiable information was subject to the security 
                breach;
                    (B) without unreasonable delay, but not later than 
                45 days after the discovery of a security breach, 
                unless extended by the Federal Trade Commission, the 
                agency or business entity notifies the Federal Trade 
                Commission, in writing, of--
                            (i) the results of the risk assessment; and
                            (ii) its decision to invoke the risk 
                        assessment exemption; and
                    (C) the Federal Trade Commission does not indicate, 
                in writing, within 10 business days from receipt of the 
                decision, that notice should be given.
            (2) Rebuttable presumptions.--For purposes of paragraph 
        (1)--
                    (A) the encryption of sensitive personally 
                identifiable information described in paragraph 
                (1)(A)(i) shall establish a rebuttable presumption that 
                no significant risk exists; and
                    (B) the rendering of sensitive personally 
                identifiable information described in paragraph 
                (1)(A)(ii) unusable, unreadable, or indecipherable 
                through data security technology or methodology that is 
                generally accepted by experts in the field of 
                information security, such as redaction or access 
                controls shall establish a rebuttable presumption that 
                no significant risk exists.
            (3) Violation.--It shall be a violation of this section 
        to--
                    (A) fail to conduct the risk assessment in a 
                reasonable manner, or according to standards generally 
                accepted by experts in the field of information 
                security; or
                    (B) submit the results of a risk assessment that 
                contains fraudulent or deliberately misleading 
                information.
    (c) Financial Fraud Prevention Exemption.--
            (1) In general.--A business entity will be exempt from the 
        notice requirement under section 211 if the business entity 
        utilizes or participates in a security program that--
                    (A) effectively blocks the use of the sensitive 
                personally identifiable information to initiate 
                unauthorized financial transactions before they are 
                charged to the account of the individual; and
                    (B) provides for notice to affected individuals 
                after a security breach that has resulted in fraud or 
                unauthorized transactions.
            (2) Limitation.--The exemption in paragraph (1) does not 
        apply if the information subject to the security breach 
        includes an individual's first and last name, or any other type 
        of sensitive personally identifiable information as defined in 
        section 3, unless that information is only a credit card number 
        or credit card security code.
