Common Security Worst Practices

This topic was one of ILTACON 2021's most popular conference sessions, and as security is a concern to many the original panel has reunited for a follow-up podcast.
Security is complex and when left without robust resources of money, knowledge, and people we sometimes revert to the ostrich head in the sand approach. Even though we try to do our best, we sometimes fall into bad habits.This podcast session is the opposite of sharing best practices . . . we will call out the absolute worst mistakes. Without mentioning any entity or name, we will discuss the criticality of certain practices. Our goal is to give you the opportunity to walk away with a private GOLD STAR or perhaps the feeling of "oh no, I do that and better fix that" without having to admit it to your peers.Moderator:@Corey Reitz - Cyber Assurance Architect, Sandia National LaboratoriesSpeakers: @James McKenna - Chief Information Officer, Fenwick & West LLPMelodi (Mel) Gates - Senior Legal Editor, Privacy & Data Security, Thomson Reuters@Rebecca Sattin - Chief Information Officer, Worldox@Robinson Roca - Practice Lead, Infrastructure Services, Helient Systems LLC@Heather Morrow -Director, Project Management & Training, Loeb & Loeb LLP.​Recorded on 10-21-2021

The Modern Ethical Minefield - Leveraging Technology to Manage Conflicts at the International Law Firm

The continued growth of law firms, and the increasing transience of their attorneys, have created many new risks for firms to account for regarding conflicts of interest management.   Increasingly, large international Firms have transitioned to a centralized approach for conflicts clearance, utilizing non fee-earning professionals for this function. 
Despite this, challenges remain - particularly stemming from increasingly restrictive conflicts language within Outside Counsel Guidelines as well as recent US case law.  In this podcast session, the speaker will focus on discussing the unique conflicts challenges faced by US firms with international presence and various approaches to these challenges; how technology and centralization are the key to meeting these challenges; and whether changes to the conflicts rules are needed in order to "modernize" and account for the breadth of today's international law firm and technological advances.Moderator:@Tracey Pardo - IS Process Improvement Analyst, Cooley LLP
