Abstract:	"One component of the newly implemented European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a revision of a 1995 directive, is mandatory breach notification. The US has no such federal law. This means companies must satisfy multiple US laws and that makes it more challenging to comply. This study is a comparison of the GDPR with the statutes of the 50 US states, highlights the challenges companies face and reveals the types of decisions companies must make to be in compliance with these statutes."
