Proven Track Record
Privacy impact assessment for multi-jurisdictional research project
An Australian-based research and training firm was conducting a research project with participants based in multiple locations and engaged us to conduct a multi-jurisdictional privacy impact assessment.
Our Role
We conducted a deep dive on the project, assessed compliance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and select US state privacy laws, mapped data flows throughout the project, and identified risk points and proposed mitigations. We also provided practical privacy-by-design advice on the project data collection, storage, access, and retention practices, and drafted various strategic communications to ensure best practice in the privacy messaging given to research subjects.
Our Impact
Our assessment and advice enabled the client to achieve privacy best practice in the delivery of what was a highly sensitive piece of corporate social research.
Urgent support to prevent serious billing fraud
An Australian state government agency suspected a fraudster had taken over the email account of one of its finance managers to commit billing fraud. The agency required urgent expert support to confirm the data breach, inform their insurance claim, and help them resecure their network.
Our Role
Our forensic and data breach experts were on site within 12 hours, secured suspected compromised devices and captured relevant logs and data. With a multidisciplinary team of forensics, cybersecurity, and privacy experts, we reviewed evidence and completed an investigation within 30 days. Our Strategic Communications team also helped
the client identify and close gaps in their crisis communications manual.
Our Impact
Our team’s swift action enabled the agency to resecure their network with minimal disruption to business operations. The agency could also inform and manage senior stakeholders and develop an uplift strategy, thanks to our detailed technical report and Board-ready summary outlining the data breach and key improvement recommendations.
Providing a defensible litigation strategy in a short timeframe
Our client had approximately 177,000 documents to review in a short timeframe. Due to limited budget constraints, only a small review team was allocated.
Our Role
Using analytical tools and strategies and a Technology Assisted Review (TAR) process known as Continuous Active Learning (CAL), we created a defensible workflow strategy for the review team to focus on the most likely relevant documents first, and ultimately reduce the overall review document population.
Our Impact
By employing state-of-the-art e-discovery tools and strategies, we defensibly trimmed down the reviewable universe to 28,000 documents within the given deadlines and budget.
