Cyber Resilience and Risk Management: Critical Insights for Lawyers: This presentation provides a comprehensive overview of the legal, regulatory, and business risks associated with cybersecurity and emerging technologies like AI. It emphasizes the critical role of lawyers in managing cyber incident response, regulatory compliance (e.g., SEC, GDPR, HIPAA), and board-level oversight to ensure organizational resilience. Tailored insights are provided for various legal practice areas, including finance, healthcare, M&A, energy, and intellectual property, with actionable strategies for mitigating risks and navigating complex regulatory frameworks. The session highlights the importance of cross-functional collaboration, leadership, and strategic planning to address evolving threats and support clients in achieving compliance and business continuity.

Shawn Tuma helps businesses protect their information and protect themselves from their information. He represents a wide range of clients, from small to midsize companies to Fortune 100 companies, across the U.S. and globally in dealing with artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, data privacy, data breach and incident response, regulatory compliance, computer fraud related legal issues, and cyber and AI-related litigation. Having practiced in this area of law since 1999, Shawn is widely recognized in cybersecurity, data protection, and emerging AI law and governance. He is frequently sought out and hired by other lawyers and law firms to advise them when these issues arise in cases for their own clients. While this area of the law has evolved greatly in the decades while Shawn has been practicing—most recently with the rapid development of AI technologies—he continues to evolve with it as a practitioner representing his clients, academically as an author and instructor, and as an analyst for the national media. He is a Partner and Co-Chair of the Cyber, Data, Artificial Intelligence, Emerging Technology Practice Group at Spencer Fane LLP where he regularly serves as cybersecurity and privacy counsel advising a wide variety of businesses ranging from small and mid-sized companies to Fortune 100 enterprises, across the United States and globally.
