Ninth Annual Legal Careers in Cybersecurity, Privacy & Information Law

Hackers, terrorists, and cyber criminals have continued to instigate cybersecurity, privacy, and critical infrastructure threats. Today, lawyers must grapple with the intersection of technology, information governance, and law, navigating unprecedented legal challenges and crafting practical solutions on the emerging cyber, homeland, and privacy frontiers.

For new lawyers interested in how to meld law, policy, and technology, the ABA Science & Technology (SciTech) Section, Homeland Security Committee’s signature event assembles an exceptional cast of experienced and diverse lawyers who have built careers in federal agencies, on the Hill, within the private sector, and at law firms where they handle the hottest issues in cybersecurity, privacy, information law, and all of the above. Co-sponsored by the ABA’s Cybersecurity Legal Task Force, the ABA’s SciTech ePrivacy Committee, the ABA's Section of Public Contract Law’s Cybersecurity, Data Protection, and Emerging Technology Committee, and Crowell & Moring, this event brings together law students to meet, network, and hear from these cyber, privacy, and information law professionals and senior ABA leaders who will discuss where they started, how they arrived, and what they recommend as potential career paths.
