The American Conference Institute’s (ACI) National Conference on Cybersecurity Law & Compliance is a practical, comprehensive event for the legal and compliance community. Attendees will learn how to ensure their organization’s cyber program is fully incorporating (and reconciling) a complicated web of federal and state requirements and that their company equipped to satisfy SEC, FTC and more agencies’ expectations.

- Determining how much to disclose, what is material to the breach, and the Affirmative Disclosure Rule
- Who determines what is material within your organization and the process and criteria for assessing what is material
- Determining whether a shareholder would consider the incident important in making an investment decision
- When to “start the clock” for complying with the SEC reporting deadlines
- Mapping communication standards within the company and to stakeholders
- What is privileged information that cannot be disclosed
- What constitutes disclosing the whole breach, and what are grey areas
- What can emerge during discovery and potentially lead to litigation
- Regulatory implications of not providing a full disclosure
