ISO 27001 for solicitors would help your firm avoid some of the most common recurring problems the industry faces in dealing with information protection. Legal sector-specific technology continues to advance, and this has transformed workflows and processes in the workplace. However, some firms are slow to adopt more modern technologies as there are so many options available that it’s difficult to know exactly what is needed and how to implement it. Additionally, some legal companies may not have the most up-to-date security systems in place, which opens the firm up to the risk of attackers who can easily access the vulnerable data they hold. Data breaches are increasingly common in the legal field due to the sensitive nature of the data stored in files on users’ computers. Often, attackers will turn to phishing scams to digitally extort the data from a client.
