A Legal Firm's Journey to Protecting Critical Data

Founded in 1894 and growing rapidly over the past decade, this U.S. firm grew from 6 to 12 offices and boasts 182 attorneys and 450 employees. The firm recognized it was threatened by cyberattacks and acted to protect its network and data. Like many law firms, the organization had invested in extensive on-premise IT systems, but its attention to cybersecurity lagged, leaving the firm vulnerable.

Legal Firms - A Growing Target For Cyberattacks

"Pay the ransom, or deploy prevention?" That question between the CIO and CFO of the firm kicked off a series of discussions around how vulnerable the organization was to a ransomware attack. The increased risk of remote working and recognition that sensitive client data was at stake made the team take action. A security audit uncovered firewall policy flaws, and a lack of visibility to devices on the network that were not covered by EDR. With limited resources, no ability to operate a SOC, and no budget for new headcount, coverage was the team turned to CyGlass Hybrid Network Defense.

"We were hesitant that a Network Detection and Response (NDR) tool could be affordable and effective. CyGlass took all of 20 minutes to eliminate our fears as we rolled out across every location. The simplicity of operations and accuracy of detection exceeded our expectation. The service is less expensive to operate than our firewalls or EDR tool!”
