ABOUT TRUESEC – A LEADING CYBERSECURITY COMPANY

Since 2005, Truesec has been a native cybersecurity company, driven by one single purpose: Creating safety and sustainability in a digital world by preventing cyber breach and minimizing impact.
Over the years, we’ve earned the trust of organizations worldwide and gained a strong reputation internationally. Our team consists of dedicated specialists covering the entire spectrum of cybersecurity – with capabilities in Predict, Prevent, Protect, Respond, and Recover.
Today, we employ around 300 employees – and as cybercrime grows, we need to grow. To support that goal, we are now looking for a Legal Counsel who wants to make a difference in our Legal Team.

Truesec is number one in cybersecurity in Sweden – and we want to claim that spot in cyber law, too.
As a member of Truesec Cyber Law, you will work with a wide variety of tasks – from supporting a premiere technical organization on its mission to create a safer digital future to supporting customers with cyber, cybersecurity, and privacy law. As a member of Truesec Cyber Law, you will be acting both as in-house counsel and legal consultant, thus redefining both the traditional in-house counsel role and shape how legal services can and should be provided. As a member of Truesec Cyber Law, you will work in cross-competence teams together with some of the most experienced and talented lawyers, cybersecurity and information security experts, and incident responders.

Some examples of tasks and roles you will come across as a Cyber Law member are:

• Group Strategic Partner: We engage with and advise the group Leadership Team on matters regarding, e.g., corporate law, legal risks, and legal/compliance/privacy strategy.
• Cyber Law: We advise customers on all things related to cyber law and cybersecurity law, including preparing for personal data breaches, managing risks related to cyber law and cybersecurity law, and managing and responding to personal data breaches, including notifying authorities and coordinating global legal teams, advising on crisis communication, acting as crisis manager, negotiating with our customers’ customers to reduce legal and contractual risk during an incident, etc. Together with Truesec’s market-leading Cybersecurity Incident Response Team (CSIRT), or as a standalone service, we provide customers with a unique one-stop-shop for proactive and reactive incident response services.
• Traditional In-House Counsel: We support the group and its business areas with developing legal, compliance, privacy, and governance frameworks; managing legal risks and issues associated with a rapidly growing and internationalizing tech company; negotiating complex commercial agreements; etc. In the more traditional in-house role, you create the legal framework for an innovative and dynamic organization as well as translate legalese for both business people in management and technical experts working on the field, and the other way around.
