Cybersecurity Training for Attorneys and Law Firm Employees (Online Seminar)

A pre-recorded streaming video replay of the September 2018 webcast, Cybersecurity Training for Attorneys and Law Firm Employees.

Phishing and phone scams have become a global epidemic. Organized crime groups around the world target you and your colleagues, attempting to gain access to financial accounts or hold your data for ransom. One click, and you too can be held hostage.

Education is the first step in abiding by your ethical duties and protecting your firm from phishing threats and other common cyber-attacks. Learn how attackers trick people into clicking on links and giving out information—and how you can implement an effective cybersecurity awareness program in your firm, including options such as awareness videos, realistic phishing tests, and more. This practical program will include tips to ensure that you and your employees are educated and an effective part of your "human firewall."
