“We help clients protect and manage personal data as well as proprietary and other information assets and other cyber risk exposures. We guide them in meeting their legal, regulatory and contractual obligations concerning the collection, use, transmission, storage and destruction of data and in mitigating cybersecurity risks. We also represent clients in privacy related litigation, including class action defense, in jurisdictions throughout the United States, and in regulatory proceedings in the U.S. and UK,” noted the law firm in a press release.
