About Kaufman Borgeest & Ryan LLP Kaufman Borgeest & Ryan LLP was founded in 1997 by a group of experienced and nationally-recognized defense attorneys dedicated to providing the highest quality legal services to domestic and international clients. The firm has grown gradually but consistently since its inception, and presently has over 120 attorneys practicing out of 6 offices in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and California, in over 30 different practice areas. Our growth has been built upon the strength of our reputation for excellence, our ability to deliver cost-effective, resolution-oriented services, and in our innovative and responsive attention to the needs of our clients. Our cyber liability practice is focused on the ever-increasing risks and rapidly evolving liability exposures associated with the creation, transmission, security and storage of data, particularly private, personal and proprietary information. Today's businesses face the threat of hackers trying to steal data, and the accidental disclosure of such information - or loss of such information - can give rise to liabilities to customers, clients and the government. We work with our clients to identify and advise on strategies to address and minimize potential legal liabilities, while protecting and enhancing the efficacy of our clients' internet operations and network reputation. Event Synopsis: Vague requirements and a hot button political issue make for a volatile mixture as industry members try to comply with the U.S. Food & Drug Administration's (FDA) cybersecurity requirements. The Agency, to date, has released four guidance documents outlining its proposed approach to cybersecurity enforcement, but has yet to demonstrate the degree of its resolve through enforcement activity. By taking apart and analyzing recent FDA action, the panel will inform viewers about the nuts and bolts of cybersecurity compliance. FDA has made clear that health care facilities need to reassess their information security programs and ensure that these programs are comprehensive and updated. Applicable cybersecurity measures should also be taken to be able to address the vulnerabilities identified in the alert. Similarly, manufacturers of medical devices should carefully evaluate their products for potential security exposures. They should also offer security patches or, if needed, replacement products to their customers and ensure cybersecurity integration to product development. In a two-hour LIVE webcast, a panel of distinguished professionals and thought leaders assembled by The Knowledge Group will provide guidance and suggestions to assist the healthcare industry in understanding the important aspects of this significant topic. They will provide an in-depth discussion of the FDA's cybersecurity enforcement and its implications to the healthcare industry. Speakers will also offer best practices in developing and implementing effective information security programs in light of the most recent cybersecurity news. Key topics include: § The FDA Cybersecurity Enforcement - An Overview § Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities of Medical Devices § Implications to Healthcare Facilities and Medical Device Manufacturers § Best Information Security Practices § Regulatory Forecasts About The Knowledge Group/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series The Knowledge Group was established with the mission to produce unbiased, objective, and educational live webinars that examine industry trends and regulatory changes from a variety of different perspectives.
