摘要: In the United States, identity theft resulted in corporate and consumer losses of $56 billion dollars 2005, with up to 35 percent known thefts caused by data breaches.

While laws are expected reduce theft, effect yet be empirically measured. We use panel from U.S. Federal Trade Commission estimate impact on 2002 2009. find adoption breaches 6.1 percent, average.
