As a result, Jim established both the Privacy & Data Security task force and the Cybersecurity Preparedness & Response Team, well before other firms realized these issues faced their clients. Jim’s experience includes not only handling some of the largest breaches on record but also includes everything from data-related regulatory actions and litigation, the intricacies of the AdTech ecosystem, preparing companies and their boards for cybersecurity risks, and leveraging and monetizing personal and corporate data around the globe.
