January 22: Don’t Click That! Cybersecurity for Legal Professionals

Law firms have increasingly become a prime target for cyberattacks. And, between fielding hundreds of emails and countless unhinged client phone calls, it is not surprising that overworked lawyers and staff are the weakest links. From phishing emails and ransomware to hacked Wi-Fi, the risks to legal professionals grow every day. Yet many lawyers feel like this is someone else’s problem, or that it will never happen to them (although the data proves otherwise).

In this eye-opening CLE, attorney Jordan Turk will demystify cybersecurity for the modern law practice. You’ll learn how to recognize common threats, implement practical safeguards, and meet your ethical duty of competence, without needing an IT degree.

Key Takeaways:

The most common cyber threats targeting law firms (and how hackers actually get in)
Step-by-step tips to secure your devices, email, and client files
How to create a firm-wide security culture that helps satisfy your ethical obligations

After almost four years of practice with a high-asset family law firm in Houston (and after being frustrated at the lack of automation in her firm), she discovered the world of legal technology which ultimately brought her to Smokeball.
