Description

Building an effective data privacy and security program requires a thorough analysis of the type of data an organization collects and how it uses and stores that data as well as who has access to it. Data security programs establish guidelines and safeguards to ensure that data is handled, stored, transmitted, and accessed in ways that meet an organization's needs while also ensuring compliance with applicable state, federal, and global privacy laws.

The key components of a data privacy program are the risk management strategies to protect against data breaches and protocols to anticipate and respond to security incidents effectively.

Once a privacy program is in place, continued maintenance, audits, and refinements are essential to maintain compliance with the ever-changing patchwork of laws as well as evolving threats and organizational needs.

Listen as our panel of privacy law experts provides tips and best practices for advising clients on building, maintaining, and refining data privacy and security programs.
