Westlaw Journal Computer & Internet – Data Breach ǀ September 11, 2015

Jason Beach provides commentary about a recent lawsuit against the IRS, where cybercriminals were able to obtain taxpayers’ personal data through the agency’s “Get Transcript” app. Beach expects “any briefing in support of Article III standing to take full advantage of the recent — and plaintiff-favorable — decision by the 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals regarding future injury.” Beach’s practice focuses on complex commercial litigation, cybersecurity/data breach issues, and government regulatory matters.
