Partner Maneesha Mithal will be appearing on the panel "FTC Cybersecurity Enforcement: The Decade Since Wyndham and LabMD" on April 4:

In the decade since the FTC filed its first cybersecurity enforcement actions, against Wyndham Hotels and LabMD, there have been significant regulatory developments in the cybersecurity arena. The Third Circuit upheld the FTC’s authority to allege that unreasonable data security practices are unfair. The 11th Circuit told the FTC to make its orders more concrete. Other federal agencies, like the CFPB and SEC, have brought significant actions, with the SEC issuing proposed cybersecurity rules. Meanwhile, the FTC has issued a new Safeguards Rule for financial institutions, raised questions about security in its “Commercial Surveillance” ANPR, and continued to bring dozens of enforcement actions. Sit down with the lead FTC litigators of Wyndham and LabMD to discuss war stories, lessons learned and implications for future regulatory activity.

Partner Laura De Boel will be on the panel "DMA, DSA and Data Act: Implications of New EU Data Regulations on Contracts" on April 5:

The EU's new Digital Markets Act, Digital Services Act and Data Act are set to have a big impact on companies' data collection and data sharing practices. Companies will need to assess how these new regulations affect their customer, vendor and partner agreements in relation to a wide range of data-related products and services, such as online platforms, advertising, cloud services and connected products. Aligning companies' GDPR contracting strategies with the new rules will be crucial to successfully navigate the new regulatory landscape. Panelists will discuss case studies and provide practical tips for contracting.
