Notice of a breach of security must be made without unreasonable delay and no later than 60 days after determination of the breach, except in specified situations. If the number of affected Delaware residents exceeds 500, the person required to provide notice must also notify the Attorney General by the time notice is provided to residents.

This provision is in force under the current codified text; the underlying research did not establish a dated original commencement, so no effective_date is recorded here.
