The New Standard of Care: Federal Cybersecurity Law and the Lawyer's Duty of Com
About the Program

Cybersecurity is no longer an IT problem. It is a competence problem, and federal law is making that clear. In this program, the presenter walks attorneys through key federal frameworks, ABA Model Rules, and bar ethics opinions that now define how lawyers must protect client data, vet vendors, and respond to breaches.

Drawing on ABA Model Rules 1.1 and 1.6(c), NIST standards, and formal opinions from the ABA, California, and New York, this CLE translates technical cybersecurity concepts into practical guidance attorneys can apply across practice areas. Attendees will leave understanding what written information security policies, employee training, vendor due diligence, incident response planning, and breach notification actually require, and why these obligations are now inseparable from competent, billable legal representation.
