Practising Law Institute: Privacy and Security Law Institute

PLI's Ninth Annual Institute on Privacy and Security Lawwill focus on critical issues of privacy and data protection faced by all companies, including legal compliance requirements in online privacy and information security practices. The Internet and other emerging information technologies have created powerful tools for the collection, processing, storage and use of personal information. Domestic and international legal restrictions on corporate rights to use such information are complex and evolving, as are new laws requiring corporations to protect the security and integrity of such data. Legislators, regulators and the courts are rapidly developing new law and compliance obligations that companies cannot afford to ignore.

WilmerHale partner Becky Burr will be a featured speaker at this event. On July 22, she will speak on the topic of, "Privacy in Litigation: Responding to Government and Civil Litigant Requests for Personal Information."
