House Bill 3746 amends the Identity Theft Enforcement and Protection Act, Business & Commerce Code, to require the notification sent to the attorney general following a breach of security of computerized data involving at least 250 Texas residents to include the number of affected residents that have been sent a disclosure of the breach by mail or other direct method of communication at the time of notification. The bill requires the attorney general to post on the attorney general's publicly accessible website a listing of the data breach notifications received by the attorney general, excluding certain sensitive, compromising, or confidential information. The bill sets out the attorney general's duties with regard to updating the listing and provides for a notification to be removed from the listing after one year if the person who provided the notification has not reported any additional breach during the year.
