LegalSEC Summit 2017: Attendee 2-day Registration
Event Code:
#ILTALSS #LSS28
Time:
10:30 AM - 11:30 AM ET
The amount of effort and resources our clients put into developing a unique product or process that can provide an edge in the business world is substantial. What happens if someone comes in and steals that edge for the benefit of a foreign country? What happens if that theft is achieved by infiltrating the client’s law firm? The damages inflicted from the loss of trade secrets can severely undermine your client through lost revenue, lost employment, damaged reputation, lost investment for research and development, and interruption in production. It could even result in the client going out of business. Economic espionage costs billions of dollars annually and can put national security at risk. Theft attempts by competitors and foreign adversaries are becoming more brazen and more varied in their approach. You must be prepared. An FBI special agent will explain ways to recognize economic espionage, provide security training to your personnel and develop an insider threat program. #ILTALSS #LSS28
