Security First Approach Provides a Significant Advantage to Law Firms
Monumental cyber events, such as the recent Equifax breach, draw enormous press attention, public outrage and government scrutiny. The coverage is almost exclusively negative, challenging the security capabilities of the firm and questioning whether negligence played a role.

This method has become increasingly popular even beyond the sport of baseball.
