The legal and financial sectors are privy to our most personal and sensitive data. This includes personally identifiable information and payment card industry details. Protecting the privacy and security of client data is absolutely paramount. Especially as data leaks can lead to heavy fines under FCA, ICO and GDPR rules.

A breach of GDPR alone could leave firms exposed to a maximum fine of €20 million or 4% annual turnover. Not to mention the reputational damage, lost business, and potential legal action that could follow. The stakes could not be higher. But many legal and financial firms still mistakenly rely on outdated data security methods.

Legacy infrastructure and traditional firewalls are not enough to protect sensitive data from increasingly sophisticated and constantly evolving threats.
