Building an Intelligence-Led Cyber Response; In-House Counsel’s Growing Role in Cybersecurity Risk Management

Tuesday, October 17th, 10:30 – 11:00 AM

Cybersecurity is becoming more of a business and legal problem with every major breach. Boards and C-Level management are increasingly looking to the Legal team to triage response and clean-up the fallout after inevitable breach incidents. How can in-house counsel orchestrate the cyber response in a way that prevents risk and minimizes damage to the corporate reputation, loss of key data and legal and regulatory penalties?

Attend this presentation by data protection and cybersecurity experts to learn about:

  • Making the correct cyber investments in people, process and technology
  • Building an intelligence-led program; how to lead and drive the process, who to involve and what to include
  • Knowing what to prioritize; conducting a vulnerability assessment and identifying your organization’s crown jewels
  • Benchmarks for success and how to protect against problem areas such as insider threats and third party security failures

Jake Frazier, Senior Managing Director, FTI Technology

505 - Antitrust/Competition Law in Disruptive Industries and Markets

Tuesday, October 17th, 9:00 – 10:30 AM

This session will analyze the government trend of filing anti-competition legal actions against companies that introduce disruptive technologies. By definition, disruptive technologies challenge markets and market definitions. In fast-moving tech markets, how does one go about acquiring other companies and creating new products without offending antitrust regulators? How does one identify a market as subject to disruption, and then define that market and its market power? With regards to disruptive technologies, do traditional market definitions and market-power measures stifle innovation, by artificially raising costs and creating regulatory barriers to entry? Panelists will share answers to these questions, and their perspectives on navigating antitrust regulations when seeking growth in disruptive industries and markets.

Speakers:

D. Bruce Hoffman, Acting Director, Bureau of Competition, US Federal Trade Commission
Kathryn McCarthy, Senior Managing Director, FTI Technology
Gracie Renbarger, Vice President, Ethics & Compliance, Bazaarvoice
Bilal Sayyed, Partner, McDermott Will & Emery
Kenneth Wittenauer, Associate General Counsel, Americas, Husqvarna Professional Products, Inc.
