This week we are joined by Mark Rasch, Adjunct Professor at George Washington University Law School and former DOJ prosecutor of cybercrimes, to discuss the DOJ's recent change to its policy for charging good faith security research cases under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.

LinkedIn and Supreme Court decision in Van Buren v. U.S.
