Make the Most Valuable Files the Hardest to Reach

- Managed detection and response. 24/7 monitoring and rapid isolation for endpoints and identities.
- Email and wire-fraud defense. Impersonation protection and verified-callback procedures.
- Identity and access control. Enforced MFA and least-privilege access to matters.
- Security awareness training. Short, practical exercises built around real legal scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions
Law Firm Cybersecurity FAQs
Practical answers to common questions about protecting client data and responding to threats.
What cybersecurity controls should a law firm prioritize?
Start with multi-factor authentication, endpoint detection, protected email, prompt patching, tested backups, and a written incident plan. Priorities depend on the firm’s systems and client obligations.
How can a law firm reduce settlement wire fraud?
Pair email impersonation protection with a firm-wide callback rule: independently verify changed payment instructions using a trusted phone number already on file, never a number in the request.
What should a law firm do after a suspected cyberattack?
Contact its incident-response provider and insurer promptly, isolate affected devices when safe, preserve evidence, and follow the response plan. Get legal advice on any client, regulator, or notification obligations.
