Protecting Your Data

An article in Corporate Counsel Magazine advised law firms on how they can do a better job of protecting their data, and that of their clients. The suggestions apply to any work environment:

  1. Control access to those who "need to know.”
  2. Control communication including use of mobile devices, personal email accounts, personal computers, or social media pages.
  3. Limit delivery and exchange of documents to secure channels.
  4. Properly dispose of all documents.
  5. Conduct background checks on all personnel who work with proprietary information.
  6. Create and implement a security breach plan, including immediate notification to your company and clients in the event of an actual or suspected breach.
