Cybersecurity and data protection
2021 Annual Litigation Trends Survey
United States | Publication | March 7, 2022
Norton Rose Fulbright's 2021 Annual Litigation Trends Survey indicates that cybersecurity and data protection were cited as main drivers of emerging dispute concerns.
A remote workforce and increased reliance on technology exacerbated the impact of cybersecurity and data protection issues for a great majority of respondents.
Respondents anticipate that cybersecurity and data protection will be a top driver of new disputes in the next several years. Recent Litigation Trends reports have illuminated growing concern over cybersecurity and data protection disputes across sectors. In 2021, two-thirds (66%) of respondents said they felt more exposed to these types of disputes, up from less than half (44%) in 2020.
