- Class action and other litigation risk;
- regulatory risk; and

Kohne, Reed and Turetsky write that companies “need to keep up with the threats, their risks and the law, including expanding views of their obligations.” They also must continue to be vigilant both before and after data breaches to limit long-term harm.
