In an era when high-profile data theft cases have shaken some people’s faith in the security of personal information entrusted to fund managers, it is critically important for firms to take steps to detect, prevent and address such thefts by rogue employees. This is of particular urgency for hedge fund managers now that the SEC has stepped up its focus on cybersecurity. See “Growing SEC Enforcement of Hedge Fund Managers Requires Greater Focus on Cybersecurity and Financial Disclosure” (Jul. 7, 2016). Data security and the measures that can help safeguard trade secrets and sensitive information were the focus of a recent Hedge Fund Association (HFA) panel discussion. The participants were Mark Sidoti, director of the business and commercial litigation department and chair of the e-discovery task force at Gibbons; Paul Neale, chief executive officer of DOAR, Inc.; and Lisa Roitman, general counsel of Litespeed Partners. This article highlights the most salient points for hedge fund managers raised by the panel.
