    Law Firms Are High-Value Targets

    Law firms hold some of the most sensitive data in existence: client secrets, settlement amounts, intellectual property, and personal information. Cybercriminals know this, and they target law firms specifically.

    Business email compromise (BEC) targeting wire transfers and settlements
    Ransomware targeting case files and confidential records
    Phishing attacks impersonating opposing counsel or courts
    Insider threats from departing employees with client data access
    Unencrypted client communications via personal email

    Client Confidentiality Protection

    Multi-layered access controls, encrypted communications, and data loss prevention tools that protect privileged client information from both external threats and accidental disclosure.

    Common Questions from Law Firms

    Do Kentucky bar ethics rules require law firms to have cybersecurity?

    Yes. Kentucky's Rules of Professional Conduct require attorneys to make reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized disclosure of client information. Most state bars, including Kentucky's, have issued guidance confirming that this includes reasonable cybersecurity measures. The ABA has published formal opinions on this as well.

    What legal software do you support?

    We support the most common legal platforms including Clio, MyCase, NetDocuments, iManage, ProLaw, PracticePanther, and others. We integrate these with Microsoft 365 and your other business systems securely.

    How do you handle the confidentiality of our client data?

    We sign a business associate agreement (if applicable) and a confidentiality agreement. Our team members are background-checked. We follow strict data handling procedures. We are never given access to client files unnecessarily, and when access is needed, it's logged.

    We're a small law firm. Is managed IT worth it for us?

    Small firms are often more at risk than large ones. They have the same data but fewer resources to protect it. A single ransomware attack or data breach can be practice-ending for a small firm. Managed IT provides enterprise-grade protection at a predictable monthly cost.
