About the author
John Bandler is a former cybercrime prosecutor and state trooper now in private practice helping businesses and individuals with cybercrime investigations, traditional investigations, cybersecurity, data privacy, policy review, anti-fraud, and anti-money laundering. While a prosecutor at the New York County District Attorney’s Office, he led a groundbreaking investigation into global cybercrime, data trafficking, and digital currency money laundering which led to the arrest, extradition, and conviction of several international cybercriminals and a dozen domestic identity thieves. This case occurred before virtual currencies and data breaches were regular news, and culminated with a successful trial against the last three defendants, a Ukrainian cybercriminal and two New York identity thieves. Prior to becoming a prosecutor in Mr. Morgenthau’s office, he served as a New York State Trooper in a busy station providing all police services to the local community. Mr. Bandler has a broad range of experience with unique areas of expertise, is licensed to practice law in NY, CT, and DC, holds many professional certifications, and is on the adjunct faculty at Pace University's Law School and John Jay College of Criminal Justice. He teaches a law school course, which he developed, on cybersecurity and cybercrime prosecution, and teaches undergraduate courses on security and cyberlaw. He recently authored the comprehensive book "Cybersecurity for the Home and Office: The Lawyer’s Guide to Taking Charge of your Own Information Security" published by the American Bar Association, and he has written many articles on cybersecurity, cybercrime, fraud, money laundering, criminal justice, and more.
