Scott Godes Quoted in Law360, “4 Tips for Law Firms to Maximize Cyber Coverage”

Scott Godes, partner and co-chair of the firm’s Data Security and Privacy Practice Group, was recently quoted in “4 Tips for Law Firms to Maximize Cyber Coverage,” published by Law360. The article notes that law firms handle a wide variety of confidential client data, and comments on the importance of having insurance to cover related risks.  The article gives tips about policy terms, conditions, and exclusions that, in a perfect world, law firms should think about when buying coverage. Law360 asked Scott about using the cloud and outsourcing data storage and processing.  Scott is quoted saying, "To the extent a law firm is relying on cloud providers for storage, processing or some other service, 'cloud' or 'outsourced support' should be included in the policy's definition of a network."
