One of the most difficult challenges that directors and officers face is identifying, understanding, and managing the complex, multifaceted, and unpredictable liability and operational risks posed by cyber and data security exposures.  Boards of directors must take specific actions to protect themselves and their businesses.

Proskauer attorneys will examine the emerging cyber risks that hedge funds, private equity firms, venture capital firms, financial institutions, healthcare providers, manufacturers, utilities, transportation and energy companies, and other businesses now face.

We will discuss:

• New regulatory expectations and standards of care that government regulators, including the SEC, FINRA and the FTC, have imposed on directors and officers to manage and disclose cyber risks, and the governmental and civil liability consequences that directors and officers may face.

• Practical corporate governance practices and tips to help directors and officers proactively manage the complex business risks posed by cyber and data privacy matters.

• Advanced insurance and risk transfer solutions for cyber liability and business interruption risks to allow directors and officers to manage both their own management liability exposure as well as the operational risks facing their businesses.

• Important insurance issues and shortcomings of most insurance products that must be considered at the Board level, and as well as strategies utilizing captives and capital market solutions.
