The Importance of ISO Certification for Law Firms
Cybersecurity is one of the most critical issues in the business world today. Security breaches continue to grab headlines, and law firms have not been spared from the relentless efforts of hackers. Due to the massive amounts of sensitive and confidential data that law firms have in their possession, it is important to have the right security measures in place to thwart such breaches and remain successful in today's busy, data-driven legal market.
