Cloud Migration

Empowering firms making the transition to cloud-based services

According to ILTA’s 2021 Technology Survey only 7% of law firms said they were not yet comfortable with cloud. Two myths that are critical to your firm’s success:

Cloud is not a solution for my firm.

Whether your firm is adopting a full remote or hybrid work model, cloud will be a critical part of your IT infrastructure strategy.

Any integrator can migrate my firm to the cloud.

The difference between a successful and a failed cloud migration is hundreds of hours of remediation.

Cybersecurity Vulnerability Management

Prevent & Protect

Today’s highly evolving threat landscape makes cybersecurity more complex than ever before. You can no longer get by with just “an ounce” of prevention. Your firm’s IT environment is exposed to vulnerabilities from all angles: network, operating system, human, and process.

We are fanatical about security patching 24/7

  • Obsessively applying security updates to our clients’ Windows and network infrastructures
  • Monitoring of security industry alerts to be aware of the latest vulnerabilities
  • Regular scanning of our clients’ networks to help prevent potential threats

Remediation

While the goal is to never have to remediate, it is not a statistical truth. According to the study, “Psychology of Human Error” performed by Stanford University Professor Jeff Hancock and security firm Tessian, 88% of data breaches are caused by an employee mistake . Regardless of the tools in place and efforts made to prevent breaches, humans make mistakes. We partner with professional cybersecurity experts so that when an attack occurs, we can act swiftly to contain, investigate, and remediate the attack.

Document, Email and Records Management Systems
