That is very interesting.  In the US government has some "acts" that are concerned 
with privacy.  There is HIPAA for health care
industry patient data protection and GLBA for the financial industry consumer data 
protection.

Is anyone using TSM to protect data that is affected by either HIPAA or GLBA?  If so, 
have you taken any specific measures to comply
with the requirements.
