Jennifer A. Beckage
Peer recognized for six years in a row as one of the Top 50 Data Breach Lawyers in the United States, Jennifer Beckage began her career in the late 1990s owning and running tech companies with the advent of the internet. One tech company was acquired by a publicly traded telecommunications company that retained her as VP Operations for technical products and services.
Jennifer then pivoted to law to fill the need of lawyers who knew technology. Law.com noted her creation of a boutique law firm of tech lawyers was “novel.” Her firm is one of only a handful of firms in the US certified as a BreachCoach© due to her handling of countless headline making, national and international cybersecurity incidents impacting organizations of all sizes.
She litigated and defended clients in the first data security and privacy class actions and responded to regulator investigations. International organizations have retained her to develop legally defensible data security and privacy policies, operations, and contracts.
Beckage is a Certified Information Privacy Professional, United States (CIPP/US) and Certified Information Privacy Professional, Europe (CIPP/E). She also received her “Artificial Intelligence: Implications for Business Strategy” certification from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, MA, USA (MIT).
Jennifer has been named repeatedly as a US BestLawyers© and SuperLawyer© for information management, technology transactions, and civil litigation.
