Is 2023 the year when the US finally shifts to a rights-based regime for protecting personal information? Perhaps! We are now beyond the CCPA and even the CPRA. We have 10 state comprehensive consumer privacy laws governing the use of personal information, and more are expected to pass this year. The continuing promulgation of these consumer privacy laws make it clear the US is going through a fundamental shift in its philosophy about data privacy. Join us to learn about what these news laws are trying to protect, where they are coming from, and how to create a foundation from which to analyze and understand their requirements. We will also discuss how to create a flexible compliance program that accounts for the rapidly evolving privacy landscape.

In April 2021, the U.S. Department of Labor issued cybersecurity best practices for benefit plan fiduciaries. Since then, DOL is actively enforcing cybersecurity in its investigations of both retirement plans and health and welfare plans â especially those that have experienced a data breach. The recent MOVEit cyber incident demonstrates that just one vendor's software defect can result in lawsuits and can affect hundreds of plan sponsors, millions of plan participants, and investment funds in the trillion-dollar range. In Walsh v. Alight Solutions, the Seventh Circuit ruled that DOL has authority to issue subpoenas in the course of its cybersecurity investigations. In this session, we will discuss the latest cybersecurity related litigation and focus on practical steps you can take to mitigate the cyber risks posed by your own ecosystem of benefit plan fiduciaries and service providers.
