Montana’s regulatory landscape
Montana’s data breach notification law (Mont. Code § 30-14-1704) requires notification without unreasonable delay, with a copy of the notice filed with the Montana Attorney General. Montana layers industry-specific rules on top — GLBA Safeguards Rule for financial firms, HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2 for healthcare, and CMMC 2.0 / NIST 800-171 for the state’s defense-industrial base.
Sentry is built to detect and contain inside that statutory clock; Verity produces the evidence record an examiner or auditor can use. Armorstack runs one operating record across Verity, Core, Sentry, and Citadel for every regulated organization operating in Montana — not four vendor relationships.
