Colleagues from our Los Angeles and Century City offices recently laced up their sneakers for the 6th Annual Glo-Blue 5K Walk/Run, showing their support for the Gloria Borges WunderGlo Foundation, which is leading the fight to defeat colorectal cancer once and for all. Los Angeles associate Gloria Borges battled colon cancer with courage and verve until the very end, leaving a lasting legacy at the firm. In her honor, the WunderGlo Foundation has funded over $1.75 million in cancer research to date. #OMelvenyLA #OMelvenyCC #OMMcOMMunity #WunderGlo #GloBlue5K #CancerYourTimeIsUp WUNDERGLO FOUNDATION

“Although all organizations are prey to cybersecurity threats, public companies and regulated entities, in particular, should be mindful of SEC warnings that they have adequate policies and procedures in place to comply with the SEC’s evolving regulations, which will help them withstand the agency’s scrutiny. This includes a plan to ensure the prompt reporting of cybersecurity events,” write O'Melveny's Shelly Heyduk, Mia Gonzalez, and Michele Wein Layne in a recently published article by Law360. O’Melveny counsel Waqas Akmal also contributed to the article. Read "Lessons From Recent SEC Cyber Enforcement Actions" https://loom.ly/UwodXls
