Ted Claypoole Talks About Internet of Things Law and Risks with ACC Compliance and Ethics Committee

The Internet of Things refers to sensor-based, interactive technology on everyday items, from toys to cars to home security systems. While the IoT can make life easier and connect users with other people, it also creates security and privacy risks.

More than 130 in-house attorneys pre-registered for Claypoole’s presentation.
