Cyber fraud & cyber piracy – LSLC webinar

The LSLC and Twenty Essex are hosting a webinar on cyber fraud and cyber piracy as part of the LSLC  global webinar series.

The dependence of ships and shipping companies on computers and the internet means that cyber fraud and cyber piracy are now ever-present risks for those engaged in international trade. This talk examines the key issues that can arise from the legal and insurance perspectives. Although these issues can give rise to very substantial liabilities, shipping companies frequently encounter these issues on a smaller scale. It is therefore important to know how to deal with them practically and efficiently.
