In a dynamic and highly competitive legal industry, a strong brand reputation is key to ensuring a firm’s continued success, profitability, and growth. Such reputations are built upon quality of service over decades, client confidentiality, and delivering successful outcomes in specific fields of law. However, legal firms routinely handle highly sensitive and confidential information, making them a prime target for malicious forces who can easily undo years of hard work and cause potentially irreparable damage to even the strongest brand reputation – something that has become even more a concern as the global threat landscape continues to evolve and attacks increase in both frequency and sophistication.
Even if they already have the robust cyber security and well-established disaster recovery processes in place, firms must seize the opportunity to examine their current posture and ensure they are prepared for the very worst, working closely with their technology partners to establish a new standard of best practice across the whole sector.
In this paper, we will explore the latest cyber security challenges firms must consider, and the measures they can take to secure their sensitive data and provide their clients with complete peace of mind.
