Everywhere you look, there’s a significant data breach, or a large ransomware attack in the news.
It’d be good if you could keep your law firm’s name out of those headlines, for sure. But, for large and small firms alike, cybersecurity remains a thorny area to untangle, even as threats get more and more sophisticated.
In this edition of the Non-Eventcast, I dive into the latest in cybersecurity with Tom Lambotte, from BobaGuard, to help you keep your clients’ data safe and secure.
We discuss the need for cybersecurity training (10:23), since breaches are often engendered by careless employee conduct.
Tom also covers the main reason why law firms are so exposed (23:02), and also offers some truly horrifying examples of business email compromise (25:31).
Listen up, if you want to better understand the security threats that can take down your law firm as swiftly as a sleek iceberg in the North Atlantic. And remember to visit the Non-Event for all of your legal tech needs.
