Akerman will host a webinar titled “State Privacy Laws and Federal Privacy Regulations: How to Operationalize Compliance.” Businesses that operate in multiple jurisdictions or multiple industries can struggle to keep up with the ever expanding patchwork of data privacy and security laws. A thoughtful and strategic approach is needed to comply with the increasingly rigorous data privacy and security requirements that governments and industry regulators are implementing. Multi-disciplinary Data Privacy and Security team members, Thomas Kearney, Christy Hawkins, and Elizabeth Hodge will have a comprehensive discussion on these data privacy and security concerns.  

Discussion topics will include:

• An overview of recent developments in privacy and security laws
• An overview of recent trends in data incidents
• Recent enforcement activity
• Strategies for developing effective data privacy and security compliance programs.
