Bodenheimer will discuss this analysis and lead a co-sponsored program for the ABA Public Contract Law Section's Cybersecurity, Privacy, and Information Security Committee and the Science & Technology Law Section's Homeland Security Committee on "The Cybersecurity Patchwork of Federal Agency Rules & Unpublished Policies: How Do Contractors Comply?"
