Episode Description

In this episode, Elizabeth Corner is joined by Brittany Bacon, Partner and Co-Head of the Technology Industry Group at Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP, to explore the evolving cyber threat landscape for pipeline and oil and gas operators.

From the regulatory aftermath of the Colonial Pipeline attack to SEC disclosure rules, fiduciary duties, vendor risk, cyber insurance disputes, and evidence preservation during incident response: this conversation dives into what ‘reasonable’ really means in the eyes of regulators and courts.


As digitalisation accelerates and operational technology remains vulnerable, cybersecurity is a board-level responsibility. Brittany outlines the practical questions that directors should be asking.
