Ted Kobus stands at the forefront of cyber protection — no small role in an era defined by crippling data breaches and daily digital threats. He has earned authority in the areas of privacy, data security and cybersecurity, leading clients to entrust him with more than 8,000 data breach responses. Businesses, government and other organizations turn to Ted for sound advice on compliance, developing response strategies, breaches implicating domestic and international laws, and defense of both class action litigation and regulatory actions. Notably, he has developed key relationships with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), where he and his team have helped to establish protocols to protect corporate victims following a data breach. He knows the most proactive regulators involved in this space and interacts with them regularly.

Ted has led the defense to hundreds of regulatory investigations, including those brought by the Attorney General Multi-State, Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, Departments of Insurance, SEC and FTC. In the healthcare space, Ted has defended more than 200 OCR investigations and has negotiated more privacy/security-related resolution agreements than any other lawyer.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Ted's expertise helped us manage the fallout from a major data breach we had several years ago."
"His connections and depth of knowledge are enormously beneficial."
"With Ted's help we reached a settlement and gained preliminary approval by federal regulators."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"Being responsive is very important. A creative and business-oriented solution that fits with the client’s operational goals is critical. Ultimately, the client owns the risk and each client has a different risk appetite; my job is to provide enough data points to the client so that they can make the decision that works best for them. That also means that I cannot be afraid to make a recommended approach when asked."
