Breach rules
New York breach notification and the SHIELD Act
Beyond Part 500, New York’s general data breach law applies to any business that owns or licenses New Yorkers’ private information, whether or not it is licensed by DFS:
- 30-day deadline: since December 2024, affected New York residents must be notified within 30 days of discovering a breach, unless law enforcement asks for a delay.
- State notices: the Attorney General, the Department of State and the State Police must also be notified, and DFS-regulated firms notify DFS under Part 500.
- SHIELD Act safeguards: businesses must keep reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards for New Yorkers’ private information, scaled to their size and the sensitivity of the data.
We include these deadlines in your incident response playbook and keep the safeguards documented. See our NYDFS Part 500 compliance checklist.

FAQ
Common questions
Does NYDFS Part 500 apply to my firm?
It applies to banks, insurance companies, insurance agencies and brokers and other entities licensed or registered under New York banking, insurance or financial services laws. Some smaller firms qualify for limited exemptions. Your compliance advisor can confirm your status; we help you meet the technical requirements either way.
Do you provide on-site IT support in Manhattan?
Yes. Our New York office supports financial firms with remote help desk support and on-site visits when hands-on work is needed.
How quickly must New York businesses notify residents of a data breach?
Within 30 days of discovering the breach, under amendments signed in December 2024, unless law enforcement asks for a delay. DFS-regulated firms also have Part 500’s 72-hour notice to DFS.
