Scattered Spider Cybersecurity Attacks

Webinar | 06.05.25, 9:00 AM EDT - 10:00 AM EDT

We have seen an increasing number of cyberattacks targeting retailers in the U.S. and UK in recent months with no signs of the attacks abating – in fact, they seem to be increasing and have led to some high profile breaches. Known as "Scattered Spider," this latest wave mirrors prior attacks in the U.S., UK, and Australia.
 
In this webinar, lawyers from the law firms Crowell & Moring and Allens, together with a leading technical expert from the cybersecurity firm Mandiant, will discuss the specific attributes of the "scattered spider" attacks and the steps you can take now to prepare for them both internally and throughout your supply chain.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
