Attorneys may complete the requirement by taking Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection-General or Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection-Ethics programs, or a combination of the two: ½ credit in Cybersecurity General and ½ credit in Cybersecurity Ethics.  Newly admitted attorneys (admitted to the New York Bar for two years or less) must complete at least 1 CLE credit hour in the Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection CLE category of credit as part of their newly admitted cycle requirement.

The new requirement is effective July 1, 2023. If you are due to re-register on or after July 1, 2023 (birthday is on or after July 1st), you must complete 1 CLE credit hour in Cybersecurity, Privacy and Data Protection as part of your biennial CLE requirement. If you are due to re-register in 2023 but your birthday is before July 1st, you need not comply with the new requirement in 2023, but must comply in future biennial periods.  Example: If your birthday is on June 30th and you are due to re-register in 2023, then you do not need to comply with the new requirement in 2023, even if you file your registration form on or after July 1, 2023.  If you are due to re-register in 2024, or later, you must comply with the new requirement.
