Navigate Personal Liability Risks in Today's Cybersecurity Landscape

Presented by

Dr. Ilia Kolochenko, CEO (an attorney-at-law) | Immuniweb

About this talk

New regulations like EU DORA, NIS 2, and state AI laws are shifting liability from organizations to individual cybersecurity professionals, creating unprecedented personal legal risks. This shift means practitioners now risk individual prosecution and career-ending consequences for security decisions made under pressure. The modern CISO must balance technical expertise with legal acumen, understanding how incident response choice, from ransomware payments to breach notifications, can create personal liability. As litigation increasingly targets individual practitioners alongside organizations, developing legally defensible security strategies has become essential for professional survival. Join Dr. Ilia Kolochenko (CEO at ImmuniWeb and Attorney-at-Law in Washington, DC) to explore practical legal frameworks that protect your career while maintaining operational security effectiveness. Takeaways: - Identify specific personal liability risks under current regulatory frameworks. - Master incident response protocols that protect both organization and individual standing. - Recognize critical gaps in cybersecurity insurance that leave practitioners exposed. - Develop strategies demonstrating due care to mitigate personal legal exposure. - Balance technical security requirements with evolving legal obligations.
