Using Civil Procedure Rules to ensure crime doesn’t pay
The English Courts are willing to deploy existing CPR tools to protect the victims of malicious data breaches.
An organisation which finds that it has been the victim of a data breach and that sensitive data has been stolen can minimise the damage, both financial and reputational, by acting quickly, using the tools available within the Civil Procedure Rules (CPR).
Those tools include interim orders for a freezing injunction, self-identification, non-disclosure/restraint of publication and delivery up and/or destruction of any stolen data.
Our article "Using the Civil Procedure Rules to ensure that crime doesn’t pay" examines these tools in more detail.
