Recent events have highlighted how businesses operating in the cloud have a competitive advantage over those still tied to an office.

Gone are the days of naively assuming our confidential data is secure. Increasingly, clients, stakeholders, regulators and others are demanding proof that firms are actively protecting the personally identifiable information to which they have access, and this evidence is being demanded both before and after security incidents. It is imperative law firms have the positions and processes in place to handle security incidents with urgency, accuracy and completeness.

It happens so innocently: an employee logs into email, sees a message that his password needs to be updated in Outlook and clicks on the link provided. But the email wasn’t generated by Microsoft, it was sent from a cybercriminal who had an email address that looked legitimate. Suddenly, an attack has been launched on your employee and your firm.
The time is now to better understand your firm’s weaknesses. What systems are vulnerable? How can you best secure the environment? How can you best secure data stored in the cloud? How can you best secure on-premises infrastructure? How do you secure your firm’s general computing environment?
Our article “The Top 6 Penetration Testing Fails” will help you answer these extremely tough questions.
We'd love to share advice on enhancing your firm's cybersecurity. Call us at 1-800-541-0450 or email us at sales@innovativecomp.com to get started.

No one can deny that cyberattacks are the new norm. Such risks will increasingly challenge our ability to operate our businesses. In the world of cybercrime, everyone — from individuals to nation-states — is a target. However, some targets are more alluring than others. Legal, accounting and other professional firms are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals and hackers who are intent on accessing the vast stores of data with which they are entrusted.
