Cyber Security : Law and Guidance

With cyber security law being increasingly contentious, organisations require expert assistance to operationalise matters and uphold a necessarily robust security framework.

Invaluable for legal practitioners and organisations, this comprehensive text covers both the law and its practical application, helping to ensure that advisers and organisations have effective policies and procedures in place to deal with cyber security. Topics covered range from privacy and security in the workplace and built environment, to social media and cyber security, and international law and interaction between states.

Revised and updated, the Second Edition also benefits readers with coverage of new topics including:

• The legal risks of generative AI
• Cyber security disputes
• Data architecture
• Social media and cyber security
• Non-fungible tokens ('NFTs') as legal property
• Cyber security checklist and triage

In addition to contributions from leading international experts, the book also features in-depth reports from industry specialists. Additional context is provided through insights into how the law is developed outside the regulatory frameworks, case law and the role of professional and industry standards for security.
