Cloud computing has emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments of the information technology industry. While outsourcing a company's data to the cloud creates enormous value for businesses and drives down costs, it also creates significant business, legal and reputational risks. This webinar, conducted by two noted intellectual privacy lawyers, Boris Segalis and David Navetta, will explain the legal risks that businesses face in seeking to leverage the cloud and suggest ways to address these risks. It will also offer guidance to cloud computing providers on what they can do to help allay their customers' fears and increase their competitiveness by proactively addressing these legal risks.
