How to Prepare for Cybersecurity Threats Facing the Construction Industry

While construction remains fundamentally about bricks and mortar, it is also being reshaped by the digital revolution, and increasingly dependent on the cloud. Electronic document repositories and databases are now routine features of major construction projects for the maintenance of project documents, and the exchange of project correspondence. Building Information Modelling and the increased use of collaborative design tools place ever more critical design information into the virtual space. Models, in turn, are now relied on and maintained through the decades long operating lives of many new infrastructure assets. These developments bring welcome efficiencies to the industry, but also new risks. This webinar will feature cybersecurity experts on these new threats to the construction sector, and legal experts on how such risks are being addressed in new construction and infrastructure contracts. The session will review cybersecurity best practices for internal and external responses to a cyber incident to maximize legal protection, planning and prevention for cyber readiness, law enforcement considerations, and laws and regulations around ransomware payments.
