Cyber Security In A Law Firm Setting

Measuring and understanding how cyber security risks relate to business operations in a law firm setting is essential in today's business climate because a modern law firm may experience prolonged business disruptions, loss of confidential client data, and possible ethics violations in the event of a cyber incident.

Cyber threats against law firms are so advanced and prevalent that the American Bar Association took notice and updated several of their Ethics & Professional Conduct Rules and Opinions.

Those changes address the need to make cyber risk mitigation efforts an active part of protecting legal and sensitive client documents.

Our fully-managed cyber risk mitigation service RESOLUTE can help align your firm with the American Bar Association rule changes and opinions.
