Which of the following regulations does not address notification of individuals or a government entity in the event of a data breach?

The regulation that does not specifically address notification of individuals or a government entity in the event of a data breach is FERPA, which is the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. FERPA primarily focuses on protecting the privacy of student educational records and grants certain rights to parents and eligible students regarding their education records. While it sets forth requirements concerning the handling of student information, it does not contain specific provisions requiring notification in the event of a data breach.

In contrast, the other regulations do have explicit requirements regarding breach notification. For example, HIPAA mandates that covered entities must notify individuals whose protected health information has been compromised, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services. Likewise, GDPR requires data controllers to notify relevant authorities within a specified timeframe and to inform individuals about data breaches affecting their personal data. The CCPA also includes provisions that require businesses to notify consumers in certain situations of a data breach concerning their personal information.

Understanding the specific requirements of each regulation helps highlight the unique purpose behind FERPA's focus on educational privacy rather than breach notification.
