Flexible Models — Managed, co-managed, or advisory to fit firm size and client demands.

The challenges we solve

Law firms and in-house legal teams handle highly sensitive data across deal rooms, litigation, eDiscovery, and client communications. That confidentiality is your brand — But it’s also a prime target. Our legal cybersecurity services protect privileged information, matter workspaces, and multi-party collaboration end-to-end: stopping BEC and data leakage, securing deal flow and eDiscovery, and producing insurer- and client-ready evidence without adding friction for fee-earners.

Business Email Compromise (BEC) & Payment Diversion

Partner/executive impersonation, invoice fraud, and wire redirections.

Privilege & Data Leakage

Misaddressed mail, unsafe sharing, and shadow copies across DMS and email.

Deal Rooms & Multi-Party Collaboration

External counsel, clients, and advisors increase access and audit complexity.

Identity, Privilege & Ethical Walls

Lateral movement via over-broad rights; matter-level segregation and “need-to-know” are hard to maintain.

eDiscovery & Litigation Risk

Large data transfers, review platforms, and production sets widen exposure.

Third-Party & Supply Chain

Chambers, experts, LPOs, and SaaS vendors expand the attack path and assurance burden.

Compliance & Assurance

GDPR/Data Protection, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SRA/Lexcel expectations, and cyber-insurer requirements demand clear evidence.

Delivering Cybersecurity for Legal

Whether you need full outsourcing, specialist support or targeted solutions, we deliver what fits your environment.

Security Operations & Monitoring

24/7 SOC/XDR tuned for legal: BEC indicators, anomalous mailbox rules, risky OAuth grants, suspicious DMS access, privileged activity monitoring; incident response and threat hunting.

Endpoint, Email & Access Security

EDR/XDR for partner/associate/end-user devices; advanced email security and impersonation protection; SSO + MFA with conditional access; privileged access management; passwordless/FIDO options for high-risk roles.

Cloud, App & API Security

Posture management for M365 and legal SaaS; API and app protections for portals and client services; secrets management and CI/CD guardrails for custom integrations.

Automation & SOAR Solutions

Playbooks to auto-quarantine BEC campaigns, revoke risky OAuth tokens, expire sessions, isolate endpoints, and notify matter owners/IT with minimal noise.

Backup, Continuity & Recovery

Immutable backups for email, DMS, Teams/SharePoint and key file repositories; “clean-room” restores; DR playbooks and rehearsals aligned to filing deadlines and court dates.

Offensive Security & Testing

External/internal penetration tests; web/app/API testing for client portals; red-team exercises; attack-surface discovery for forgotten subdomains and exposed collaboration sites.

Compliance, Risk Advisory & vCISO

Roadmaps and evidence for GDPR, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SRA/Lexcel; third-party risk workflows; board/partnership-ready metrics and narratives; cyber-insurer questionnaires.

Awareness Training & Human Risk Management

Targeted training for partners, associates, and support teams; phishing simulations using legal-realistic lures; micro-learning embedded into Outlook/Teams and the DMS.

Data Protection, DLP & Matter Security

Data classification and labeling (client/matter); DLP for email and Teams/SharePoint; ethical walls/segregation; secure external sharing and watermarking; audit trails for client/insurer due diligence.

Deal Rooms & Collaboration

Secure setup for cross-firm matters (VDRs, Teams/SharePoint/NetDocuments/iManage); least-privilege external access; link expiration; sensitivity labels and e-signing with verification.
