Frequently Asked Questions
What cybersecurity do law firms need?
Law firms must protect attorney-client privileged communications, secure e-discovery workflows, comply with ABA Model Rules 1.1 and 1.6, defend against ransomware and BEC attacks, implement secure client portals, and meet practice-specific requirements like CMMC or CJIS.
Can a data breach waive attorney-client privilege?
Yes. Courts may find privilege waived if the firm failed to take reasonable precautions to maintain confidentiality. Our security controls create a defensible record of reasonable efforts that satisfies ABA and state bar requirements.
Do you have a Licensed Digital Forensic Examiner on staff?
Yes. Craig Petronella holds NC License #604180-DFE and serves as a Cybersecurity Expert Witness. He provides court-admissible forensic analysis, chain-of-custody documentation, and expert testimony.
How do you protect against ransomware targeting law firms?
We deploy multi-layered defenses including EDR/XDR, email security, network monitoring, and immutable backups. Attackers target law firms because deadline pressure makes firms more likely to pay. Our approach eliminates that leverage.
Do you help with CMMC compliance for defense litigation firms?
Yes. As a CMMC Certified Registered Practitioner organization, we implement the specific technical controls and documentation that defense litigation firms handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) require.
How do you secure e-discovery workflows?
We implement encrypted collection tools, secure processing environments, privilege review platforms with audit logging, and production protocols that maintain defensible chain of custody from preservation through production.
