Summary
Law firms have a cyber problem, and it’s bigger than most people think.
We’re not just talking about ransomware or lost USB sticks. Insider risk, social engineering, and yes, deepfakes, are reshaping the threat landscape. And the legal sector, with all its sensitive data and overworked professionals is firmly in the firing line.
In this episode of Security Done Different, we break down why human error is still the #1 cause of breaches, how compliance fatigue is quietly opening the door to attackers, and why basic security hygiene often gets overlooked until it’s too late. We also get into the legal grey zones around AI and deepfakes. The tech is moving fast, but regulation? Not so much. That’s a problem, especially when your firm’s reputation (and client trust) is on the line.
We talk about culture, communication and the moments of pause that could prevent your next incident. And we ask a tough but necessary question: is your firm secure… or just lucky?
Expect blunt insights, practical takeaways, and a clear message, security doesn’t have to be complicated, but it does have to be intentional.
