Meredith Griffanti specializes in crisis communications and high-stakes litigation, with a focus on complex cybersecurity attacks, data breach investigations and privacy issues. She provides counsel to clients on both cybersecurity preparedness and incident response matters involving PII, PHI, IP and other sensitive data across a wide range of industries.
Prior to joining FTI, Ms. Griffanti spent six years as a spokesperson for Equifax, most recently stepping in to manage crisis communications and drive enterprise messaging around the response to one of the largest cyberattacks in history.
Her leadership and work with the company’s new Chief Privacy Officer and Chief Information Security Officer post-breach largely contributed to rebuilding trust with Equifax’s key stakeholders and helped regain the company’s credibility as an industry leader in data protection and cybersecurity. She is also a veteran of both the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives, where she served as a communications director and press secretary to several elected officials.
