Everyone needs to be concerned with cyber-attacks, these days. It’s a myth that only large organizations need to be concerned about hackers trying to get their information.

Whether it’s for litigation, investigations, or crisis management, the legal hold is one of the most important parts of a proper information governance program, and legal hold errors can lead to serious consequences for your organization. Join us as prominent attorneys from the corporate sector and government—including the former Director of Information Governance at the White House—join technical experts to discuss the legal hold process from corporations and governments to law firms and service providers. We’ll cover legal considerations, including recent case law on data preservation obligations, technical considerations, and workflow issues, with insight on how you can protect your organization.

The panel will discuss the best practices around how to utilize business intelligence to drive meaningful legal and financial impact for your law department and the business client you support. We will explore the types of data that should be leveraged and the common tools used to visualize the data.

Our panel of experts will examine the impact of AI and automation on the entire contract management lifecycle and how lawyers can dramatically streamline many intelligent activities typical of contract work, such as redlining, comparing clauses to corporate standards, and ensuring that fine details comply with corporate policy.

In fact, depending on what reports you read, anywhere from 40% to 60% of cyber-attacks specifically target small to medium-sized businesses, and upwards of 70% of small businesses have experienced some form of cyberattack in the last year. The smaller the business, the fewer the resources it will typically have to spend on cybersecurity. If you think a good cybersecurity plan and infrastructure is too expensive, wait until you find out how much it costs not to have one.
