Cybersecurity Protection for Law Offices
Law firms have unique cybersecurity and regulatory challenges. Many Law Firms lack fully competent cybersecurity programs to mitigate risk and safeguard their data. Malicious actors often target law Firms because their networks can contain a treasure trove of privileged client information.
Law Firms can contain terabytes worth of confidential information, including trade secrets, intellectual property, and attorney-client personal information. While it is reasonable to assume that a global business can afford a comprehensive cybersecurity plan, many law firms struggle to build an effective cybersecurity posture.
BYOD policies and the advent of remote work with the Covid-19 pandemic have only increased these security issues. If your legal team is using their own devices to store and transmit sensitive data, that poses a genuine cybersecurity risk in the event of a breach. It takes one clever phishing email to expose your law firm’s sensitive information to hackers.
All of our programs come with:
- Antivirus/Anti-Malware
- SIEM
- Log Monitoring
- Network Monitoring
- Backup and Recovery
- Security Policies and Procedures
- State and Local Requirements
- Compliance Support including HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, NYDFS, and more
Cyber attacks, ransomware attacks, and data breaches concerning law firms are not new, but the pace of occurrence and year-over-year rise is astounding. According to the American Bar Association, up to 42% of law firms with less than 100 workers have had a data breach. Security laws have evolved over the years. In recent years, many new cybersecurity laws have been passed; such as the CCPA or the California Consumer Privacy Act and GDPR, the general data protection regulation passed for EU data protection. Cyber threats in 2022 are no longer a matter of locked social media accounts but are now examples of national security concerns and international law.
How it Works
Cybersecurity Protection for Law Firms
Malicious actors have often turned their attention to target legal firms in recent years. The American Bar Association (ABA) requires law firms to make “reasonable efforts to prevent the inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of, or unauthorized access to, information relating to the representation of a client.” Lawyers must take immediate action to secure their client data, respond when a breach is suspected or found, and notify any clients who may have been harmed by the breach.

As cyber-attacks grow more common throughout the world, law firms must invest in more robust cyber security measures to protect their own business and their sensitive client data, including anything from healthcare information to credit card numbers and financial information. Law firms must recognize that they are a prominent target for hackers and cybercriminals and take the necessary steps to safeguard their clients and themselves.
