Former state assistant attorney general and Cigna privacy officer Matthew Fitzsimmons has rejoined colleagues from the Attorney General's Office to become part of the new state attorneys general team at Hartford's Shipman & Goodwin.
Fitzsimmons, 39, most recently Cigna's lead cybersecurity counsel, joins former boss and immediate past Attorney General George Jepsen in the new practice group, along with immediate past Deputy Attorney General Perry Zinn Rowthorn. All three are now partners at Shipman & Goodwin, with Jepsen's role likened to that of a player-manager in professional sports. Fitzsimmons also becomes a member of Shipman & Goodwin's data privacy and protection practice group.
A week into the new job, Fitzsimmons said he was excited to be reunited with Jepsen, who Fitzsimmons said has been at the forefront of cybersecurity issues in Connecticut for the past decade.
