Grand Rapids Cyber Security Conference

Cybersecurity is as much a legal issue as it is a technical one. There are many state and federal laws and regulations which address the security and privacy of data and information.  Although there is legislation imposing specific obligations on businesses in certain industries, there is no overarching piece of legislation uniformly providing cybersecurity guidance to all U.S. businesses.

Given this fragmented legal framework, each business should take proactive measures to develop a legally compliant privacy and security plan. In this session, we will discuss how you can identify and address regulatory requirements applicable to your business, and how to establish policies and procedures that will help minimize the risk of, and respond to, security breaches.  Although every business’ plan will be unique, we will also discuss recommended best practices, and attendees will receive a checklist of important considerations that can be used in developing a plan.
