Privacy, Cybersecurity, and National Security

Building on diverse public and private sector experience, WBK’s privacy, cybersecurity, and national security team offers forward-thinking, multi-faceted advice in the legal, regulatory, and policy spheres.

The team’s work covers a broad range of functions, including:

  • Advocating on behalf of clients in regulatory and other official processes;
  • Engaging federal agencies and officials on their latest thinking on privacy and cybersecurity frameworks;
  • Advising clients on how to anticipate and mitigate national security concerns in various government arenas;
  • Organizing cybersecurity incident simulations; and
  • Advising on the design of products and operations.

Beyond formal advocacy and counseling, we also serve as clients’ eyes and ears in policy discussions inside and outside the Beltway, keeping our clients informed about their exposure and opportunities not only in the current environment but in the future as well.
