Fostering an Effective Cyber Strategy: When Cyber Attacks Can Erode Your Reputation & Client Trust
Cyberattacks Target Attorneys: Common Threats Inside & Out
2024 NIST 2.0 framework: Legal & Ethical ramifications for non-compliance
Cyber-criminals disrupt the operations of an organization. In the wake of cyber-attacks, business and individual reputations can be compromised, and as a result, client trust is soon to follow. With the current status of cybercrime reaching a global economy of $10.5 trillion, cyber strategies are essential to keeping everything protected, from data and people to reputation and client trust. Cyberattacks can come in many forms and understanding where you might be vulnerable can help you maintain operational resilience.
Attorneys have ethical and common law duties to take competent and reasonable measures to safeguard information relating to clients and often have contractual and regulatory duties to protect confidential information. Several of the ABA Model Rules are particular in application to the protection of client information, including competence (Model Rule 1.1), communication (Model Rule 1.4), the confidentiality of information (Model Rule 1.6), safeguarding property (Model Rule 1.15), and supervision (Model Rules 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3). The implantation and adherence to cyber security frameworks and compliance regulations, such as those found in the new FTC Safeguards Act or NIST framework, can help to better solidify client trust and build reputation. In addition, we will discuss how recent case studies have shown that there can also be legal ramifications by not having these security frameworks in place should a breach occur. We will review in detail the framework elements and how they work to protect the organization.
