Cyber Security Consulting & Advice for UK Law Firms

Stay on top of cyber security risk management with PDA legal

We support you to review or augment the controls that protect the information in your firm. Taking into account requirements from regulators, insurers and best practice in general, we identify areas that could be improved or enhanced to support information and data security, and to safeguard against breaches.

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has published a 2023 cyber threat report for the UK legal sector.

This report highlights how vitally important it is that legal practitioners take cyber security seriously, and steps which law firms can take to protect themselves.

The SRA also reported that out of a survey of 40 law firms, 30 had been the victim of a cyber attack, and in the case of the remaining 10 firms, cyber criminals had targeted their clients directly during a legal transaction.
