Scott L. Vernick was quoted in the Inside Counsel
article, "Planning for the Inevitable Cyber Breach." Full
text can be found in the May 20, 2014, issue, but a synopsis is
noted below.
While outright prevention of cyber-attacks is impossible,
limiting the effects of a data breach and the reputational damage
that frequently accompanies a breach is something organizations can
take measures to do.
Noted privacy attorney Scott L. Vernick, a partner at Fox
Rothschild and moderator of the panel "Primer to Cyber
Security Incident Response Plan," at the recent 2014
SuperConference, said "looking at the 2013 statistics, 90
percent of companies reported they've been hacked."
"There are only two types of companies, those that have
been hacked and those that don't know they've been
hacked," said Vernick.
