Overview

This program is a video replay of the segments “Litigation in Privacy and Data Security” and “Preparing for the Inevitable: Managing a Cybersecurity Incident” from the “Twenty-Fifth Annual Institute on Privacy and Cybersecurity Law” program. It will be held live in-person in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Why You Should Attend 

Because businesses today are driven by data and digital assets, data privacy and cybersecurity issues have become mission-critical. The Internet, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, and evolving information technologies employ powerful tools to collect, combine, analyze, use, store, and dispose of personal information. The November 2022 release of ChatGPT has fueled a firestorm of questions about the great responsibility that comes with the extraordinary power of data-driven generative AI. These rapidly changing data trends create a wide range of compliance and liability issues, while raising the stakes for protecting such data in challenging risk environments, ranging from internal vulnerabilities to criminal cyberattacks and other threats.

What You Will Learn

The first topic tackles the ubiquitous threat of cybersecurity incidents and the need for organizations to be prepared through mitigation efforts. Participants will engage in a mock cybersecurity event through a complex tabletop exercise, learn to identify anomalies that suggest the occurrence of a cyber incident, and gain insights on how to manage a forensic investigation and remediation. Additionally, they will learn how to handle the legal and reputational fallout of a cyber incident, work through reputational and communications issues, and consider the regulatory response and ensuing litigation.

The second topic delves into the evolving privacy and data security landscape and the litigation arising from data breaches, failure to implement reasonable security, and violations of federal and state-specific data privacy and biometric laws. Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the privacy and data security litigation landscape, evaluate gating procedural issues for plaintiffs and strategic considerations for defendants, and recognize regulatory requirements to avoid potential litigation and enforcement actions. They will also understand how to manage data security incidents, maintain attorney-client privilege, and defend against future litigation.

Who Should Attend

This program is designed for attorneys and professionals who provide advice on information data privacy and cybersecurity strategy, compliance, and risk management issues. This program will presume a general familiarity with privacy and data security issues and is intended for intermediate to advanced professionals looking to hone their skills.
