Cybercrime threatens everyone professionally and personally, reasonable cybersecurity is now a legal requirement for many, and an ethical requirement for attorneys. Attorneys need to protect themselves, their firms, and their clients. New York State has even created a new CLE requirement for Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection.
Rules on security, detection, investigation, and reporting are evolving, and there are lawyers, individuals, and organizations who may not be aware of them, do not know where to start, or need more knowledge. Lawyers need to take measures to protect themselves, clients, and employees, and advise clients on these complicated issues. All organizations need to take similar measures to safeguard and secure their systems and protect confidential information. All of us can play a role to properly guide the evolving areas of law with respect to cybersecurity, cybercrime, and privacy.
Prevention of cybercrime remains the goal, so we discuss that in depth. Incidents may still happen, and proper incident response and investigation is now also a requirement. We discuss applicable laws and professional responsibilities for cybercrime and cybersecurity, priority cybercrime threats, and how to build a personal and organization cybersecurity program.
This presentation is for all attorneys, for any level of technical knowledge or skill. It will be fully interactive, live, in person CLE, and will not be recorded.
The course shall be a one-day event held on Franciscan’s beautiful campus and includes continental breakfast & lunch.
