Courts turn aside data breach suits

DATE: 01 Apr 2009


Courts in several jurisdictions have dismissed every class-action suit filed on the basis of data breaches. Attorney David Goldstone, a partner in Boston-based Goodwin Procter's intellectual property and white collar crime & government investigations practices, explains why. But, he said, there's no guarantee that future suits will fail as well, and companies commonly settle rather than risk trial. He was interviewed at SecureWorld Boston Expo 2009 by Information Security magazine Sr. Technology Editor, Neil Roiter.
