Overview
One of the key challenges facing lawyers and law firms today is how to effectively respond to the increasing risk of cybercrime and cyber incidents. This course focuses on cyber risk in the context of legal practice and how you can protect your clients and your practice against these risks.
Cyber risk affects everyone – from small businesses to multinational organisations. Lawyers and law firms are particularly vulnerable to cybercrime and cyber incidents due to the type of information and transactions they manage. How lawyers respond to these challenges as impacts upon both their professional and risk management obligations.

Cyber security problemsThe course challenges the basic understanding of the subject by making one aware of the complexity, diversity and prevalence of cyber crime. My first port of call is --have I been pawned. Then I shall immediately improve my passwords and probably my user name as well. Thank you for the wake-up call.
