Understand the United States cybersecurity laws and how to protect your client.
Clients are focused on how their personal information is being handled and computer breaches are commonplace. Whether your client is a large internet presence like LinkedIn®, a prestigious law firm such as Mossack Fonseca of Panama Papers fame, or even a major political party such as the Democratic National Committee, they are not immune from cyber-attacks. If a breach occurs, your clients will need guidance as to their next steps. Virtually every state now has notification laws on the books dictating who must get notice when a data breach occurs. California is leading the way in data privacy for consumers. This topic will bring you up to speed as to the most current notification requirements and the direction of data privacy so that your client’s interests can be protected in the event of a compromise. This information is the who, what, where, and when for data privacy and data breach notification.
