Cynthia Cole, partner in the data and cyber practice at global law firm Baker McKenzie, recently discussed the developments in data privacy and artificial intelligence in 2025 thus far with Law360.

• The broader challenge companies face in navigating a rapidly expanding web of state and federal privacy regulations.
• The importance of tracking emerging enforcement patterns, as regulators ramp up staffing and resources to pursue data privacy violations more aggressively.
