Anatomy of a Data Breach: Analyzing Past Breaches to Minimize Risk (8:45 AM to 9:45 AM)
There are a lot of people gunning for your data. In the war against data breaches, your best defense is to understand the past breaches – and keeping an eye on an ever-changing security horizon. Since the cone of silence around law firm data breaches shattered in 2016, firms have worked diligently to harden their security and devise incident response plans. This session will explore the life of data breaches from their inception though their discovery, response, remediation and recovery.

Security Practices That Won’t Bust Your Budget (10:45 AM to 11:45 AM)
"We can’t afford what you’re recommending." Law firms say this all the time – but there are scalable ways to implement cybersecurity technology, policies, and practices that aren’t budget busters. There are many free and low-cost solutions to improve the security posture of your firm or organization. You might be pleasantly surprised to learn how much you can do for a relative pittance.
