Who we help · Law firms
Confidentiality you can demonstrate, not just assert.
Small firms carry the same client-confidentiality duties as large ones, with none of the in-house IT. We put the controls in place and keep the evidence current for your insurer and your clients.
The pressure you’re under
What’s actually being asked of you
Duty of confidentiality and competence
ABA Model Rules 1.1 and 1.6, and their New York equivalents, require reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized disclosure of client information. "Reasonable" is now read to include MFA, encryption, and incident planning.
Cyber-insurance requirements
Law firms are a top ransomware target. Insurers require enforced MFA, managed EDR, tested offline backups, email filtering, and staff training before renewal, and will decline claims where the attestation was wrong.
Client security questionnaires
Corporate and institutional clients send outside-counsel guidelines and security assessments. Losing work because you cannot answer them is a real cost.
Matter continuity
A filing deadline does not move because your document management system is down. Uptime and fast recovery are part of practicing law now.
What we do about it
The work, in plain terms
- Enforce MFA across email, remote access, and your practice-management and document systems; eliminate shared accounts.
- Encrypt every laptop and desktop and confirm encryption in your document and email platforms.
- Deploy and monitor managed EDR on all devices.
- Maintain tested, ransomware-resistant backups of Microsoft 365 and firm data with a written recovery runbook.
- Harden email against spoofing and partner impersonation (SPF, DKIM, DMARC at enforcement).
- Run quarterly security awareness training and phishing simulations, and retain the records.
- Maintain the policy set: acceptable use, access control, incident response, data retention, vendor management.
- Help you complete outside-counsel security questionnaires and insurance attestations accurately.
- Provide an incident response plan and be your first call.
Where firms usually start with us: a Microsoft 365 Security Baseline project, then a Secure-tier monthly plan with the policy set and quarterly reviews that keep you ready for questionnaires and renewals.
We handle security and IT operations. We are not providing legal advice on your ethical obligations; we work alongside your own read of the rules.
