Cybersecurity & Data Privacy Advisory

Secure your systems. Safeguard your legal operations.

Data is the backbone of every legal team — and its greatest vulnerability.

We help law firms and in-house teams assess risk, strengthen cybersecurity posture, and align with evolving privacy standards.

Whether you’re rolling out new tools or tightening internal controls, we’ll help you move securely and strategically.

Why legal teams need cyber & privacy support

Data compliance isn’t just IT’s job anymore. Here’s what legal teams are up against.

Sensitive Data, High Stakes

Legal data is privileged, regulated, and often targeted.

Shadow IT & Sprawl

Tools pop up faster than policies — creating hidden risk.

Cross-Jurisdictional Complexity

Data laws shift by region — and by client.

Vendor Risk Blind Spots

Most teams don’t audit external platforms or providers.

Inconsistent Practices

Without clear policies, even well-meaning teams create exposure.

Compliance Pressure

From GDPR to DPDP to client contracts — legal teams must lead by example.

What this engagement covers

Cyber Risk Assessment

Identify gaps across tools, processes, access, and oversight.

Vendor Risk Review

Evaluate contracts, DPA terms, and platform security.

Incident Response Planning

Build a response plan before it’s too late.

Policy & Playbook Design

Create practical, defensible policies your team will actually follow.

Data Mapping & Governance

Know what you store, where it lives, and who touches it.

Compliance Alignment

Stay audit-ready for GDPR, DPDP, HIPAA, SOC 2, and beyond.

Outcomes you can expect

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

Reduced Legal Exposure

Identify and fix security gaps before they become breaches.
