BTI Consulting Group placed Pillsbury in its “Law Firms Best at Cybersecurity” list, acknowledging the firm as leading the charge on the advancement of cybersecurity and data privacy law. The acknowledgment was based on more than 300 in-depth interviews with corporate counsel and leading decision makers in the legal industry, including representatives of 17 industry segments.

Already recognized by Chambers Global as one of the world’s foremost cybersecurity practices, Pillsbury’s Cybersecurity, Data Protection & Privacy team offers keen knowledge and experience in helping businesses worldwide proactively address the issue of proper information management. The team has successfully resolved an international data breach involving some of the world’s highest profile web brands, including pursuing the perpetrators across multiple countries to recover stolen data. Pillsbury also advised a leading global technology and cybersecurity company on international data transfer issues and their Binding Corporate Rules application.

In November 2016, Pillsbury teamed up with FireEye and Thomson Reuters to help corporations manage cybersecurity compliance and concerns by providing a multi-pronged, holistic approach to cybersecurity due diligence and risk assessment. That program has been hailed by ABA Journal as a “one-stop shop for law firms in cyber-risk.”
