Data Breach: Overview of Trends in Litigation and an Approach to Practical Prevention

Online, September 14, 2009 (Newswire.com) - The White Paper entitled "Data Breach: Overview of Trends in Litigation and an Approach to Practical Prevention" discusses the evolving approach to data breach litigation and tries to identify the new trends developing in this field. It discusses risk associated with data breach litigation as well as an approach to practical prevention of data breach within an organization.

The White Paper reviews the topic of data breach from two perspectives: first, an overview of the trends in data breach litigation, and second, a more granular perspective of practical data protection processes that may serve as a guidepost to help reduce the risk of likelihood of data breach. Taken together the reader will understand why a measured approach to data protection can reduce the risk of financial liability from a data breach lawsuit.
