Enterprise Data Risk Management

Advising on all aspects of managing risk associated with enterprise data, from record retention and e-discovery to data privacy and data security

In today’s digital landscape, data is an enterprise’s most critical asset, yet it also presents significant legal and regulatory challenges. Our data risk management practice helps clients manage and protect their data throughout its life cycle, advising on compliance with evolving data protection laws, developing strategies to mitigate risks, and responding effectively to security incidents.

Our team evaluates industry-specific issues that affect each client’s organization. We routinely advise market-leading companies on areas such as defensible disposal, record retention and recordkeeping, data integrity, privacy and security, and data integration and separation related to acquisitions and divestitures.

Our client portfolio covers the full spectrum of business sectors, including technology, financial services, pharmaceuticals, and health care, among others.

We work with clients across the globe to tackle all critical areas of data governance, including advising a Fortune 100 company on data remediation and deletion, counseling an emerging life sciences company on a cross-border data migration to ensure compliance with the host country’s legal and regulatory requirements for such data transfers, and advising a large banking firm on data transfer associated with a series of acquisitions.
