SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal 
agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection of 
information they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of information'' is 
defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include agency 
requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports, 
keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section 
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal 
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning 
each proposed collection of information, including each proposed 
extension of an existing collection of information, before submitting 
the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this requirement, 
the OCC is publishing notice of the proposed collection of information 
set forth in this document.
    The OCC is proposing to extend, with revision, the approval of the 
following information collection:
    Title: Notice Regarding Unauthorized Access to Customer 
Information.
    OMB Control No.: 1557-0227.
    Description: Section 501(b) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 
U.S.C. 6801) requires the OCC to establish appropriate standards for 
national banks relating to administrative, technical, and physical 
safeguards: (1) To insure the security and confidentiality of customer 
records and information; (2) to protect against any anticipated threats 
or hazards to the security or integrity of such records; and (3) to 
protect against unauthorized access to, or use of, such records or 
information that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to 
any customer.
    The Interagency Guidelines Establishing Information Security 
Standards, 12 CFR part 30, Appendix B and part 170, Appendix B 
(collectively, Security Guidelines), which implement section 501(b), 
require each entity supervised by the OCC (supervised institution) to 
consider and adopt a response program, as appropriate, that specifies 
actions to be taken when the supervised institution suspects or detects 
that unauthorized individuals have gained access to customer 
information.
    The Interagency Guidance on Response Programs for Unauthorized 
Customer Information and Customer Notice (Breach Notice Guidance \1\), 
which interprets the Security Guidelines, states that, at a minimum, a 
supervised institution's response program should contain procedures for 
the following:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 12 CFR part 30, Appendix B, Supplement A.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    (1) Assessing the nature and scope of an incident, and identifying 
what customer information systems and types of customer information 
have been accessed or misused;
    (2) Notifying its primary Federal regulator as soon as possible 
when the supervised institution becomes aware of an incident involving 
unauthorized access to, or use of, sensitive customer information;
    (3) Consistent with the OCC's Suspicious Activity Report 
regulations, notifying appropriate law enforcement authorities and 
filing a timely SAR in situations in which a Federal criminal violation 
requires immediate attention, such as when a reportable violation is 
ongoing;
    (4) Taking appropriate steps to contain and control the incident in 
an effort to prevent further unauthorized access to, or use of, 
customer information, for example, by monitoring, freezing, or closing 
affected accounts, while preserving records and other evidence; and
    (5) Notifying customers as warranted.
    This collection of information covers the notice provisions in the 
Breach Notice Guidance.
    Type of Review: Regular.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 20.
    Total Estimated Annual Burden: 720 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments will become 
a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
    (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the 
information has practical utility;
    (b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the burden of the 
information collection;
    (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology; and
    (e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
