Background
Legal firms are facing heightened pressure to examine their security infrastructure and AI strategies due to the complicated set up of law firms and solicitors that require specialised security infrastructure and AI strategy support.
Through our advanced threat protection solutions, including deep packet inspection and synchronised security features, our security methods help protect sensitive client data from becoming accessible to cyber criminals through tactics such as malware and ransomware.
How CSG helped

- Helped the firm achieve the cyber essentials certification and all change works to achieve the standards required to maintain compliance ongoing. 70% of legal firms now view cybersecurity compliance as a top client expectation.
- CSG provides RDP Law with round-the-clock Managed, Detection & Response 24/7 cyber security protection through our proactive monitoring systems that ensures RDP critical systems are monitored, there is continual threat hunting across the environment and importantly a service is in place to provide more advanced protection to cyber crime.
- Migration to the cloud: Azure
Microsoft Azure offers legal firms a strategic, secure and scalable cloud platform that continues to meet the changing demands of modern legal practices. Clients are increasingly expecting faster, more flexible and digital accessible services, leaving law firms with the increased pressure to adapt by moving their systems to the cloud to remain competitive.
This has enabled the firm to become more flexible with approach and centralise the critical IT systems in the Microsoft Cloud.
This change has driven lots of benefits to the RDP LAW; flexible secure working, removing single points of failure for core systems, transitioning to modern always available systems and taking advantage of the large investment Microsoft has made into their cloud systems that could never be matched with internally hosted services.
