Alternative asset managers must contend with numerous cybersecurity issues, including emerging threats; potential breaches in a pre-acquisition and post-acquisition context; special considerations for breaches of investor or consumer data; the handling of cybersecurity issues in the investment fund context; and the proper response to breaches. These topics were addressed in a recent panel hosted by Brian T. Davis and Dimitri G. Mastrocola, partners at international recruiting firm Major, Lindsey & Africa (MLA), and featuring Debevoise & Plimpton partners Luke Dembosky and Jim Pastore, both of whom are former federal prosecutors. This article highlights the key points from the presentation.
