TruePoint Systems highlights that Texas businesses relying solely on cybersecurity tools may not qualify for legal safe harbor protection under Texas Senate Bill 2610 without documented and maintained cybersecurity programs. The bill offers protection from punitive damages if businesses can prove an active, recognized cybersecurity program was in place at the time of a breach.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
You need documented cybersecurity procedures, not just tools, to qualify for Texas safe harbor protection. This changes the minimum compliance bar and opens opportunities for services helping businesses prove readiness.
