About the event
A breach often opens the door to much more than the incident itself. Regulators may examine your broader operational processes, and US businesses can face liability under non-US laws when they handle data about people in other countries. This session covers what to expect once an investigation begins and how to manage exposure on multiple fronts.
Key takeaways:
How US companies face non-US breach liability. Understand how laws like GDPR can apply to US organizations that offer services to or monitor people in other countries, and what that means for notification and penalties.
What regulators look at during an investigation. Learn how a single breach can lead to wider scrutiny of your security practices, vendor management, data retention, and internal controls.
Managing lawsuits and follow-on risk. See how breaches can lead to class actions and other claims, and how your documentation and communications during the response can affect your legal position.
