The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) asked a federal court to force Covington & Burling to comply with a subpoena seeking the law firm turn over names of about 300 clients impacted by a 2020 cyberattack.
The SEC announced Jan. 12 it filed an application to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia for the court to order Covington to show cause as to why it should not be compelled to comply with the agency’s subpoena, which relates to the Microsoft Hafnium cyberattack.
