Great Women in Compliance: Don’t Freak Out: Compliance from a Prosecutor-Defense Lens

Dive into the world of compliance and high-stakes investigations!

In this episode of #GWIC, Hemma Lomax talks with Jamie Hoxie Solano, Partner at Dynamis LLP and former federal prosecutor, about how compliance and legal teams can lead with precision when incidents become investigations—especially where cyber risk and digital assets raise the stakes and the speed.

We cover:

  • What prosecutors look for when assessing credibility and cooperation
  • The “first 72 hours” of an internal investigation: triage, scope, evidence, and governance
  • Why cyber and digital assets matter in changing the evidence trail and the decision timeline
  • How to protect privilege while still moving fast
  • Practical guidance for cross-functional leadership under pressure
