Cybersecurity

Team members advise clients dealing with cybercrime and inadvertent breaches, as well as develop and implement strategic, business-friendly policies that support innovation while managing risk across cybersecurity and IT modernization initiatives. As new, multiple uses for technology emerge, McGuireWoods helps clients respond to unforeseen consequences that require immediate action. Whether it’s proactive data protection and planning, or reactive emergency breach response, mitigation and remediation, we guide clients to safeguard and manage their critical information assets.

Our cybersecurity lawyers offer a unique experience in tackling the challenges of protecting clients’ data and their reputations. With the increasing sophistication of technology and a borderless marketplace, hostile and criminal abuses of private data are escalating. The potential for boardroom liability and evolving intellectual property and privacy laws further escalate enterprise and personal risk. Now, more than ever, protection against cybercrime and confidence in the ability to respond to incidents and new challenges is crucial to a company’s success.

Whatever the context, the team has the skills and professional contacts necessary to address clients’ global needs in data privacy and cybersecurity.
