Most high-profile cyber security breaches occur when hackers target an organization's weakest link – its people.
Want to see a lawyer (or IT director) sweat? Whisper the words “data breach” in their ear.
One way for law firms to keep themselves from becoming the next cyber victim is to make everyone in the firm a member of the “defense.” Security awareness training is a great place to start.
To add that extra layer of data security, 49% of firms having security awareness training programs in place – and for law firms with more than 350 attorneys, that number increases to 86%.
Why are law firms investing in security awareness training? Since 2009 the FBI has been warning that hackers are targeting law firms.
