With the ever-changing and expanding risks of cybersecurity data attacks and ransom, law offices must both be careful and obtain appropriate coverage to protect themselves and their clients against the losses associated with electronic data breach. Attendees will learn the specifics of their enhanced obligation to protect their client’s data consistent with the stringent attorney client confidentiality rules. The financial risk can be high for breach of even the most scrupulously guarded data. Obtaining the correct professional liability coverage for cybersecurity is crucial to manage and avoid potential catastrophic business losses.

Our presenters can help both by summarizing the various risks and responsive insurance coverage options, as well as compliance regulations. Walk away with the necessary strategies, awareness and learn to perform appropriate risk assessments for individual lawyer and law firm compliance with the latest data protection and cybersecurity methods.
