Twenty-Sixth Annual Institute on Privacy and Cybersecurity Law

Why You Should Attend 

Data privacy and cybersecurity issues have become mission-critical as data has become one of the most valuable assets for private and public sector organizations alike. The Internet, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, biometrics, and other transformative technologies employ powerful tools to collect, combine, analyze, use, store, and dispose of personal information. Questions abound regarding the responsibility that comes with the extraordinary power of data-driven generative AI.
