Cybersecurity Risks for Small Law Firms - On Demand

Cybersecurity Risks for Small Law Firms: Protecting Your Firm and Your Clients

Sponsored by Bloomberg BNA and Citrix ShareFile

All law firms are at risk for data breaches due to the great amount of clients’ confidential information that they possess.  Small law firms, in particular, often do not have the resources to allot to a separate cybersecurity program and therefore face a significant threat of experiencing a data breach.  However, these firms must still take measures to ensure their clients’ information is secure and mitigate any potential risks.

Join experts from Citrix ShareFile and a certified information privacy professional (CIPP) from Davis Wright Tremaine LLP to learn the ways in which small law firms are open to cyberattacks.  Additionally, the panelists will discuss ways in which small law firms can develop an effective cybersecurity program and protect themselves by using technology such as cloud software.

Educational Objectives:

• Understand how hackers can infiltrate your law firm’s database
• Develop an effective cybersecurity plan specific to your small law firm’s needs
• Learn how to use the proper technology to protect your firm from cyberattacks
