What Is Disruptive Technology?
Disruptive technology is defined as new technologies or products that aim to improve and make efficient how traditional industries operate.

Recent examples of disruptive technologies include autonomous vehicles, blockchain, cryptocurrency, and artificial intelligence.
Law Glossary
Emerging technology is a term generally used to describe a new technology, but it may also refer to the continuing development of an existing technology; it can have slightly different meaning when used in different areas, such as media, business, science, or education. The term commonly refers to technologies that are currently developing, or that are expected to be available within the next five to ten years, and is usually reserved for technologies that are creating, or are expected to create, significant social or economic effects.

What Is Outsourced Technology Law?
States and the federal government have addressed the various areas of outsourced technology law, which deals with the outsourcing of information technology tasks. Though some states have outsourcing regulations, U.S. federal law does not specifically guide outsourcing transactions. However, outsourced activities must still meet any regulatory requirements of the government, whether the outsourced technology services are in the U.S. or overseas. The Federal Trade Commission states that U.S. companies who use outsourcing vendors are still legally responsible for the business performed by the outsourced firm. For example, banks are responsible for data security, whether that information is in their hands or being stored by an outside company, locally or overseas.
