    Cybersecurity & Privacy

    The cybersecurity and data privacy landscape is shifting quickly, challenging organizations to comply with new, complex regulatory requirements.

    Overview

    Leaders in the US and abroad require system-wide data privacy and cybersecurity plans that address the mandates of an intricate web of international, federal, and state law. We develop system-wide data privacy and cybersecurity plans that address the mandates of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and the NY SHIELD Act, among others. Our team helps protect your operations and information while guided by your strategic goals and technology infrastructure.

    More than ever, organizations face mounting threats to their data security. If a breach occurs, we deploy a cross-functional response team, which includes Certified Information Privacy Professionals (CIPP/US). We regularly assist clients affected by cyber incidents, direct large-scale breach responses, and resolve disputes arising from breaches, consumer privacy suits, and enforcement actions.

    Stay one step ahead by partnering with NP.
