Job description

Our Privacy, Cybersecurity & Data Strategy practice helps clients create risk-mitigated, global, scalable, and flexible privacy and cyber programs and data strategies for innovative data products, services, and uses. We assist a wide range of industries in the challenging task of protecting data in line with ever-growing and overlapping legal regimes. As traditional healthcare, life sciences, financial services, consumer products, and other companies become data companies, we have the insight and experience to help benchmark and prioritize resources, negotiate transactions, and evaluate potential business targets. When an attack happens, we quickly mobilize our investigation and litigation teams, which have successfully defended clients against data breach and privacy plaintiffs as well as major data protection authorities, to contain the incident and minimize losses.
