Why every CIO needs a cybersecurity attorney | CIO

By Securities Docket on August 4, 2015, 10:07 am

“The breadth of industries who need this type of counsel has exploded,” says Amy Terry Sheehan, editor in chief of the Cybersecurity Law Report. “Law firms that didn’t have cybersecurity are forming. General practice litigators and corporate attorney advisors will now have familiarity with cybersecurity and data privacy issues.”

Because every company now has data online – including personally identifiable information (PII), trade secrets and patent information – Sheehan says, “There is an increased need for specialized expert attorneys in cybersecurity and data privacy. Even attorneys who are working on mergers and acquisitions need to know the cybersecurity laws.”
