Jennifer Archie leads the industry in crisis management and response, regulatory investigations, and overall compliance within the data privacy, cybersecurity, and consumer protection sector. She represents clients across the full spectrum of enforcement and advisory matters implicating cybersecurity, data privacy, and consumer protection issues.
Drawing on her 35-year career at Latham, Jennifer guides a broad range of clients — from emerging companies to global enterprises across all market sectors — on matters involving:
- Computer fraud and cybercrime
- Privacy and data security compliance
- Compliance program design and management
- Advertising and marketing practices
- Consumer fraud
Jennifer is highly experienced, and recognized, in defending clients in Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and state privacy, security and consumer protection investigations and leading the response to large-scale data breach incidents.
Working in close coordination with Latham colleagues in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, she regularly advises global enterprises on complex cross-border compliance and data transfer challenges, compliance with US privacy and data security requirements, and leads assessments of internal privacy or security management programs, under FTC, HIPAA, NIST, financial regulatory, and governmental or private standards.
She also represents companies facing fallout from major cyberattacks, data leakage or theft, and suspected trade secrets and intellectual property theft.
An industry trailblazer, Jennifer has been engaged significantly in the computer crime and cybersecurity field since 1999, when she became lead outside counsel for America Online for all matters pertaining to the security of the world’s then-largest email system. She investigated, filed, and prosecuted dozens of civil lawsuits against more than 100 individual spammers/phishers and those who aided and abetted, resulting in the collection of millions of dollars in damages, permanent injunctions, novel and favorable legal precedents, and new state and federal laws on which she advised and that she personally drafted.
Jennifer is an editor of the Global Privacy & Security Compliance Law Blog.
