A pre-recorded streaming VIDEO replay of the May 2023 webcast, How Law Firms Are Meeting Their Ethical Requirement to Implement Zero Trust Architecture.
Understand the principles that govern Zero Trust Architecture
Learn how cyberinsurance companies are beginning to require elements of ZTA
Establish a to-do list with a budget and timeline for ZTA
Prioritize the most important elements of ZTA to deter cyberattacks
Many lawyers still look at us blankly when we talk about Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). If you don’t understand what ZTA is, this CLE is for you. For years, law firms relied on securing their perimeter, but that model of cybersecurity has become obsolete. Now our data is often outside law firm networks—often in a number of cloud services—and on the personal devices of attorneys and staff who work from home. We cannot protect that which is outside our networks.
The federal government projects that it will have fully adopted ZTA by the end of 2024. In a way, the government is setting a standard for “reasonable cybersecurity” that will apply to all businesses, including law firms. And no, you can’t simply buy ZTA as a product—it really is an architecture. Our experienced speakers make ZTA understandable in this session. Law firms must adopt ZTA’s “Never Trust, Always Verify” framework—sooner rather than later.
