Cyber-attacks on law firms are on the rise.  The SRA’s Risk Outlook report revealed criminals are employing more diverse and aggressive strategies, such as modifying emails, spyware, ransomware and hacking to access legal firm’s systems.

Risks and vulnerabilities are at nearly every turn, as every day tasks, from managing emails with sensitive information, to conducting identity checks or money transfers, making it a rich territory for criminals to infiltrate.

Conveyancers can mitigate their risks in a number of ways, and building a cyber ring of steel around their digital systems is an important step in that process.

That’s why property search and data specialists, tmgroup and LMS confirmly, are teaming up to deliver an educational webinar to give law firms the cyber security essentials needed for navigating a high-risk environment.

The hour-long webinar will undertake a review of the cyber security landscape and show you what cyber security tools and tactics law firms need to protect themselves and their clients from rising cyber threats.

Hosted by Mike Hughes, CTO and Emily Haskey, Senior Relationship Manager at LMS confirmly, the session will cover:

• A review of the current state of play in the conveyancing sector
• Best practice and guidance for your firm
• confirmly law firm identity checking demonstration
