Overview (Program Summary)
A program hosted by:
ACC AlabamaBoth despite and because of the pandemic, 2020 has been an active year in privacy and data security activity and enforcement. On the privacy front, issues related to contact tracing, employee and student safety, and remote working and learning are getting scrutinized and legislated. Yet, those pandemic-related privacy issues have nearly been overshadowed by the flood of California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) civil suits that have been filed since the law took effect on January 1; and a November ballot initiative could expand the CCPA’s scope and reach even further. Abroad, there have been significant decisions affecting international transfers of personal data to the United States, most crucially, Schrems II. And regulatory enforcement and civil actions surrounding niche issues like biometric privacy are also on the rise. On the data security front, threat actors are taking advantage of unprecedented vulnerabilities created by the uncertainty of the pandemic and the hurried shift to remote work environments. Security incidents have increased across industries this year. This panel will address the lessons learned from what we’ve seen so far this year and how to minimize privacy and data security legal exposure going forward.
