In an effort to protect national security, the US Government has stepped up it’s disclosure requests from companies across a variety of industries. Financial services, telecoms, hotels, and virtually any company that stores customer data will have to comply with an increasing number of these requests over the few years. The challenge for firms is knowing which requests to comply with and what you need to provide in terms of the disclosure. The Knowledge Congress has assembled a key panel of thought leaders and experts who will provide a framework for best practices in compliance.

In this two-hour Webcast, we’ll discuss:
    - Framework for compliance
    - The different types of disclosure requests
    - When to comply
    - When to push back
    - When to seek outside counsel

    - Overview as to how a variety of industries is tackling this issue
    - And much more

SEGMENT 1:


Hugo Teufel III , Former Chief Privacy Officer,
U.S. Department of Homeland Security

- Before the request – Know and follow applicable laws and your internal policies on data retention.
  If you don’t need the data, why keep it?
- Getting the request – Consider the scope of the request. Personally identifiable information
  (PII), or non-PII? Whose information?
- Transnational concerns – PII of Canadian, European citizens, or PII located in Canada, Europe
  will implicate foreign law and the jurisdiction of foreign data protection authorities. What to do?
- Foreign requests for US data – European law enforcement and intelligence agencies also can, and
  do, make “national security” requests. Redress?
- A global approach to privacy/data protection?

SEGMENT 2:


Gregory T. Nojeim, Senior Counsel, Director, Project on Freedom, Security & Technology,

- Companies large and small are likely to face a range of requests from the government
  for disclosure of customer data in terrorism investigations and other national security
  investigations.

- Communications service providers in particular - telephone companies, ISPs and others,
  including universities and non-profits - may receive orders requiring them to intercept user
  communications or provide copies of stored communications and associated identifying and
  transactional data.

- Corporations must be familiar with the array of formats the government may use - National Security
  Letters,Section 215 orders, FISA orders -- and should understand the difference between a criminal
  investigation and a national security investigation.

- Recipients of government demands do have some ability to "push back" against unreasonable
  requests.
