NEW YORK, July 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — QuisLex, a leading alternative legal services provider and industry pioneer, has announced the appointment of Melissa Paulk as Director of Data Privacy and Security Solutions. An expert in the field of data security and privacy, Paulk works closely with QuisLex clients to build the right solutions to mitigate risk and protect their organizations’ personal data.
QuisLex provides data privacy support ranging from creating a comprehensive data privacy and security program to ad-hoc or project-specific services that fill gaps and make piecemeal improvements to an organization’s privacy program. In his newly created role, Paulk will oversee the design and implementation of expanded privacy-related services and packages for QuisLex clients. He will also continue to consult with enterprise clients on their privacy compliance needs, develop customized privacy programs for clients, manage client accounts, and oversee the implementation and maintenance of service offerings within client environments.
As part of its expanded data privacy and security services, QuisLex clients will have access to a team of experts in commercial law, data privacy, data security and generative AI for guidance and training, as well as the day-to-day implementation and management of privacy tasks.
“Today, with ever-present risks to corporate and personal data, it is more important than ever for organizations to have strong privacy and security systems in place. QuisLex remains committed to helping our customers stay ahead of threats,” said Ram Vasudevan, CEO of QuisLex. “Promoting Melissa to our new leadership role helps support this effort — there is no one better suited than her to oversee the expansion of these critical services.”
Paulk previously served as Senior Commercial and Privacy Counsel at QuisLex, where he specialized in data privacy and complex commercial and technology transactions, advising corporate clients on how to best meet their data protection compliance needs. He has published numerous articles on privacy-related topics, including “Considering the Difference Between Data Privacy and Data Security” and “State of the Privacy Coalition: Examining the U.S. Data Privacy Landscape in the First Half of 2023.”
