Cyber attacks are a daily occurrence for Australian law firms, with a cyber incident reported every 6 minutes.

Recent high-profile breaches have demonstrated the devastating impact a successful attack can have on a firm's reputation and bottom line.

Raising the Bar for cyber risk in Legal

Did you know that 67 per cent of data breaches stem from malicious or criminal attack? Cybercrime is on the rise, and in today's digital age, businesses handling confidential information are prime targets of cybercriminals – and the legal sector are particularly vulnerable to these threats. A single cyber incident can result in severe data breaches or losses, costing firms hundreds of thousands of dollars and causing irreparable reputational damage. The impact on clients can be catastrophic, yet many law practices struggle to determine where to begin with cybersecurity improvements.

To help you strengthen your cyber posture, we ran a webinar where we delved into the pressing issue of cyber risk in the legal sector. Hosted by Matt Miller, CEO at Insicon Cyber and Matthew Robinson, Law Partner at Citation Legal this webinar provided practical knowledge and tools needed to protect your firm and clients effectively. Our speakers discussed real-world examples of cyber attacks targeting law firms, the tactics used by hackers, and the steps you can take to build cyber resilience and a more protected practice.
