SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 24, 2011 — RiskCommunities added two important video interviews to their TechRisk Institute portfolio. In January 2011, RiskCommunities led the interview with Scott Godes, Counsel, Dickstein Shapiro LLP, to discuss the growing exposures in network, security and privacy risks.
Julie Davis, Founder of RiskCommunities, and Scott Godes, Counsel at Dickstein Shapiro LLP, reviewed first-party and third-party network and privacy risks and exposures and other sources of concern. The two professionals discussed potential coverage gaps under traditional insurance contracts, ambiguity in corporate insurance policy language and risk transfer methods. The two-part video interview concluded with an overview of compliance, breach notification, legislative changes and litigation summary.
