Cybersecurity: What Legal Professionals Need To Know
Description:
The number of reported cyberattacks against law firms has increased steeply over the last year as cyber criminals have quickly realized the extraordinary data cache that all firms, large or small, house. The Wall Street Journal reported leading U.S. law firms are the most recent victims of a serious cyberattack where the suspected target was client data, for the purpose of insider trading. In this webinar, a member of ILTA's LegalSEC council will discuss pressing issues all law firms should be considering, including:
- Why authorities are warning the legal industry of the potential for increasing attacks
- How to identify the different attack vectors affecting law firms of all sizes
- How to address ABA cybersecurity guidelines and recommendations, and other resources to leverage
