Data Security and Privacy
Data is one of the most valuable assets in today’s economy — but also one of the riskiest. In the face of escalating cybersecurity threats, swiftly evolving regulations, and increasing regulatory scrutiny, companies can struggle to maximize their data’s value in a compliant and safe manner to drive innovation and foster competitive advantage. Blending legal strategy with business insight, we help clients chart a clear path ahead for their data security and privacy needs so they can operate with comfort and confidence.
A single data security incident or compliance misstep can wreak absolute havoc on your business. It can disrupt operations, generate regulatory scrutiny, cause financial strain, and impact business continuity. As both privacy laws and cybersecurity threats grow increasingly complex, companies need clear, strategic guidance to manage risk while maintaining efficiency.
Barnes & Thornburg has been instrumental in helping us put privacy and data protection on the company radar and launching an operationalized privacy-by-design strategy. Following an initial in-depth privacy gap analysis, they assisted in creating the subsequent roadmap to tackle any compliance challenges. They also provided relevant insights and recommendations that helped us get senior-level buy-in and approval for our privacy strategy. We cannot rate Barnes & Thornburg highly enough.”
