  • Abstract
    As new technology challenges our assumptions about security and privacy, lawmakers respond by attempting to curb and avoid the most egregious risks to the public. In this article, the authors examine how emerging US security and privacy laws create new requirements that constrain software development affecting business owners and developers who want to design security and privacy into IT systems.
