Legal firms and data breaches - Reliance acsn CEO comment

March 2017 by John Madelin, CEO at Reliance acsn

With the news that almost one quarter of law firms have suffered a data breach or fraud in the last year, the comment from John Madelin, CEO, Reliance acsn.

“The frequency of successful attacks on law firms is startling. For an industry that is trusted by its clients to protect both their data and deposits, it is concerning that they are leaving sensitive data open for hackers to access. Part of the problem is that senior leaders recognise the importance of cybersecurity, but beyond that have little clue how to approach the issue. As a result the security systems that many firms use to hold people’s data just aren’t being managed in the right way, with a patchwork of solutions being deployed without a deep understanding of the location of critical data.

“On the flip side for some time now the security industry has lacked conviction, and has fundamentally failed to educate organisations in how to manage their security holistically. It’s about using the right technology and process which includes proper alerting and alarming, but also active hunting for cybercrime. The fact is until cyber-crime is taken seriously we’re going to be fighting an uphill battle.”
