$150,000 — that’s the average ransomware payment paid by law firms to get their data back. Further, small & midsize law firms are most at risk from ransomware attacks because of their lack of cybersecurity preparedness — and because they think they’re too small to be targeted.
Tom Kirkham will dispel common cybersecurity myths and show you the five steps your law firm can take to protect against crippling and expensive ransomware and cyberattacks. To protect your firm you should: (1) Employ EDR (2) Use MFA (3) Use Storage Encryption (4) Continue Defensive Improvements and (5) Use a Skilled Security Team. Tom will also discuss ethics & technological competence, cybersecurity & confidential client data, InfoTech vs. InfoSec, cybersecurity insurance, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and the White House response to ransomware. These 5 crucial steps will dramatically increase your overall law firm network security stance and will help your firm avoid being hit by a malicious cyberattack.
