Cybersecurity, Incident Response & Privacy

Data is the lifeblood of business. Digital innovation has fueled economies around the world for decades.  Now, breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning offer enormous promise—but can pose serious risk. Protecting your organization and its data against cyber, legal and reputational risks is paramount. Our cybersecurity, incident response and privacy team stands ready to partner with you to face the challenges of the cyber, privacy and legal landscapes and facilitate the continued innovation necessary to survive and thrive.

Proactive preparation and practical privacy counseling are the hallmarks of our practice. With experience in more than 130 jurisdictions and more than 5,000 data security incidents, many of which span the globe and the supply chain, we advise clients around the world on privacy and cybersecurity regulation compliance, internal and external data privacy audits and impact assessments, data privacy and security, data-driven marketing considerations, data transfers, privacy by design/default, data sharing and secondary uses.

Our cybersecurity lawyers are trusted advisers to clients in global and high-profile incident response matters involving both personal data and market-sensitive information, including notifications to regulators and individuals, liaising with law enforcement and government agencies, and handling any related government regulatory investigations or litigation that arises.  Given how interconnected the world is now, many data security incidents are “supply chain” events that have impacts across entire economic ecosystems.  We are adept at handling these situations.
