We’ve seen these movies before:
A major public company discovers that an employee is stealing secrets for a foreign power. Despite the foreign agent’s efforts, with the help of the right government attorney, the company prevents the secrets from falling into enemy hands.
Another public company is faced with an existential threat, and only its top attorney can decipher and defuse it.
An employee error results in a security incident with international implications, and only the company’s trusted counsel can untangle the various laws and regulations implicated to make sure the employer avoids legal repercussions.
For GableGotwals, these aren’t just selections on a streaming service or hard-to-get tickets – they are actual scenes from the real-life stories of our cybersecurity team:
- A former United States Attorney who has experience as a National Security Cyber Specialist and Computer Hacking and Intellectual Property prosecutor for the U.S. Department of Justice

- Training at all organizational levels so that the rules of the road are well understood.
- Developing monitoring and oversight for third-party vendors to ensure those third-parties are aware of and are fulfilling their responsibilities.
- Working with clients to determine reporting and notification responsibilities resulting from a security breach.
