Cyber and Data Privacy Risk Management

Catalog description

The objective of this course, taught by a practicing cybersecurity attorney who served for more than a decade as a U.S. federal prosecutor, is to discuss practical, legal, regulatory and ethical considerations for understanding and managing cyber and data privacy risk and responsibility. We take a practical approach to exploring cyber and data privacy risk management from a legal, regulatory, technical, and business perspective. The course will examine cybercrime, cybersecurity, and data privacy principles through a series of case studies. Guest speakers who are experts from government and industry, working on the front lines of cybersecurity regulation, enforcement and defense, will join us during the course. We also will engage in an interactive tabletop scenario of a cybersecurity and privacy crisis, to work together in applying best practices and lessons learned.
