Like a Breach Over Troubled Waters: How to Navigate a Cyber Incident, District of Columbia Bar CLE

August 30, 2021

Cybercrime has increased dramatically over the past year, and businesses, many of which are still working remotely in some respects, have find themselves vulnerable to cyber-attacks.  Through an interactive tabletop exercise focused on a hypothetical ransomware attack and insurance claim, faculty experts will cover the full lifecycle of these events. They will offer insights on how to mitigate and manage cyber risks and liabilities by having a well-crafted insurance program, including how to remediate gaps in cyber insurance coverage, and how to handle the aftermath of a cyber event.

The panel will also discuss the potential legal and business implications of the advisory issued by the US Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Control Assets (OFAC) on sanctions risks for facilitating ransomware payments.

This new and topical class is a must for all attorneys regardless of their area of practice.

Panelists: 

  • Andi DeField
  • Latosha Ellis
  • Maeve Olney
  • Jamie Isani
