Sotto, along with several other privacy professionals, discussed the risks that law firms face in protecting their clients’ confidential information, as well as their own data. “[Law firms] are seeing multiple restrictions from clients imposing safeguards on [firms] with respect to their data,” explains Sotto. “Companies that work with law firms need to understand that, while their environments could be fortress-like, their bridge is down to vendors that have authorized access to their systems or their data. Law firms, like all vendors, are potentially vulnerable.”
