E-Discovery and Privacy Challenges – Cross Border Privacy, the Cloud, Social Media, and Other Headaches Facing Multi-national Companies

Winston & Strawn presented an eLunch titled "E-Discovery and Privacy Challenges – Cross Border Privacy, the Cloud, Social Media and Other Headaches Facing Multi-national Companies" on Wednesday, April 18, 2012 at 12:15 p.m. (Central).

As businesses continue to expand their global footprint, they face an intricate web of statutory and regulatory frameworks on electronically stored information. As a result, it is more challenging than ever for multi-national companies to develop policies that meet the wide array of potentially conflicting requirements of all countries in which they operate.  

Our webinar equipped attendees to address the latest issues facing multi-national companies with practical solutions, including the recent Sedona Conference International Principles on Discovery, Disclosure, & Data Protection. We covered the following hot button issues:

• How to manage conflicting e-discovery/disclosure obligations inside and outside the United States;
• How to effectively navigate privacy, state secret and other obligations regulating the transfer and disclosure of electronically stored information; and
• How to address the added complexity that cloud and social media bring to eDiscovery and privacy issues.

Winston & Strawn attorneys John Rosenthal, chair of the firm's eDiscovery and information management practice group led this practical, interactive presentation that provided the latest strategies for handling privacy issues that multi-national companies face daily.

An eLunch is a complimentary, interactive seminar where participants watch and listen to a presentation given by Winston & Strawn attorneys over the Internet.

Clients and friends of the firm are invited to attend seminars and events. We reserve the right to limit attendance at any firm event.

NOTE: CLE credit is not available for listening to our pre-recorded eLunch or webinar briefings.
