Title: Third-Party Evidentiary Custody and the Fragmentation of Disclosure Authority
Effective Date: December 2025 Status: Active
Position Statement
Breach disclosure obligations now routinely attach to organizations that lack forensic custody of the underlying evidence, creating a structural gap between regulatory accountability and evidentiary authority that persists independently of control maturity or vendor selection.
