Shielding the Organization from Data Risk & E-Discovery Failures - 12:45-1:45 p.m. ET

Data risk can strike an organization from many angles – from external attacks to internal malfeasance to third-party negligence – and have real consequences for the e-discovery process. How do security risks such as data leakage, shadow IT and third-party negligence lead to e-discovery failures? And how can organizations eliminate preventable e-discovery mistakes such as failure to preserve, failure to protect and the inadvertent release of privileged information? Attend this panel to discuss who bears responsibility and how to prevent failures while instituting best practices in light of the latest case law and new federal rules. 1 Ethics CLE credit pending 

Speakers:

  • Ignatius Grande, Senior Discovery Attorney, Hughes Hubbard
  • Jordan Razza, Senior Counsel and Director of U.S. Litigation, Diageo North America, Inc.

Legal IT Today #15

Corporate Data Assessments: The New Game Changer? - 2:15-3:15 p.m. ET

Where do you begin when implementing a data governance and security plan? How do you secure executive buy-in? How can you incorporate shifting regulatory frameworks to ensure compliance? What if you plan to move to Microsoft Office 365? How does this impact your broader data management strategy? These are just some of the questions that can stymie and stall corporate data governance initiatives. Increasingly, corporations are shifting to a data assessment model, which can help proactively identify threats, map an organization’s data universe and help identify an action plan that is presentable to the C-suite. Attend this session to learn more about what these data assessments should incorporate, who should be involved, and how you can customize the data assessment to your own organizational needs. 1 Ethics CLE credit pending

  • Judy S. Lao, Chief Legal Office, Blackstone Group
  • Jason C. Stearns CRM IGP, Director, BlackRock
