The Legal Industry Cybersecurity Challenge
Law firms face unique and escalating cybersecurity threats:
- Legal firms experience cyberattacks at 2.5 times the rate of other industries
- Attorney-client privilege and confidential case information are prime targets for cybercriminals
- Small to mid-sized law firms are particularly vulnerable due to limited IT security resources
- Client data breaches can result in malpractice claims, bar disciplinary actions, and loss of professional reputation
- Employee credential reuse across personal and professional accounts creates vulnerabilities
- Opposing counsel and competitive intelligence gathering make legal firms high-value targets
- Professional responsibility rules require attorneys to maintain confidentiality of client information
- Traditional security measures often miss credential exposure from third-party breaches
The Legal Industry Challenge:
The legal profession’s ethical obligations make cybersecurity not just a business concern, but a professional responsibility that can affect your license to practice.
