The document analyzes Ohio Senate Bill 220 (effective November 2, 2018), which establishes a voluntary legal safe harbor as an affirmative defense for organizations that implement cybersecurity programs that "reasonably conform" to enumerated standards (NIST CSF/SP 800-171/800-53, CIS Controls, ISO 27000, HIPAA, GLBA, FedRAMP). It highlights ambiguity about what "reasonably conforms" and scope mean in practice and discusses potential complications if states adopt divergent cybersecurity laws.
