Please join me for a luncheon hosted by the Delaware Valley chapter of RIMS on Friday, January 11, 2013:  Cyber Risk Strategies Meeting.

Here are the details that the Delaware Valley chapter of RIMS has posted about the meeting:

Every day the media reports another major cyber breach. No person or corporation is immune. And the inevitable class action privacy breach lawsuits follow. The trend among courts and government regulators has been to allow these suits to proceed to discovery and beyond. The associated costs are increasing exponentially. Become better informed by a debate on cyber risks and litigation, crisis management, loss control, the applicability of insurance and cyber risk strategies by joining us on January 11, 2013 at Aramark’s Philadelphia office.

The panelists will be Scott Godes [formerly] from Dickstein Shapiro and Richard Bortnick [formerly] from Cozen and O’Connor. Scott Godes [was] counsel in the Insurance Coverage Practice and focuses on representing corporate policyholders in insurance coverage disputes. He is a seasoned litigator who has extensive experience in trying complex insurance coverage disputes, including class actions, in state, federal, bankruptcy, and appellate courts, as well as in commercial arbitrations. He [was] co-leader of the firm’s Cyber Security Insurance Coverage Initiative.
