Attorney Sara Romine, a Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP/US), was quoted in the Wall Street Journal’s Risk and Compliance Journal on Wednesday, August 26, 2015. The article focused on the recent decision by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in FTC v. Wyndham Worldwide Corp., upholding the authority of the Federal Trade Commission to take action against companies with allegedly deficient cybersecurity programs under the unfairness prong of the Federal Trade Commission Act. The ruling makes clear that companies collecting sensitive consumer data must worry not only about the hackers trying to access the data, but also the FTC if they fail to take reasonable measures to prevent such an attack.
