Cyber attack, who's responsible?
Legal & cultural compliance
- In this white paper, Eric Barbry, a partner at Racine Avocats and an expert in digital law, looks at an aspect of cyber security that is rarely discussed: who is responsible in the event of a successful cyber attack.
- Of course, the attacker's responsibility is not in doubt here: he or she is primarily responsible. Nevertheless, the legal framework and standards may stipulate conditions of liability (for negligence, for example) which may implicate employees of the victim company.
- CISOs, CIOs, we invite you to consult Eric Barbry's white paper and recommendations for implementing not only technological solutions, but also a framework to protect your legal liability.
