Michael J. Waters is Co-Chair of
the Vedder Price Privacy, CyberSecurity & Media group. He handled one of the
first data breach matters shortly after California passed its breach
notification law in 2003 and has since counseled clients across industries
through nearly every conceivable type of breach, from system-wide malware
attacks and missing laptops to employee thefts, snooping and misdirected
communications.
Mr. Waters regularly assist companies in investigations opened by enforcement
agencies post-data breach, including investigations by State Attorneys General,
the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, and
state and federal financial, insurance and education enforcement
agencies.
