Law Firm Discovers Digital Justice

LopezLawFL has become the latest small-to-medium professional service firm to realize that ransomware groups don't actually care about their legal credentials. By letting incransom into their systems, they have potentially handed over sensitive client files to people who definitely won't be following attorney-client privilege during the leak. This incident serves as a grim reminder that if you are small enough to think you are invisible, you are exactly the right size to be an easy target for a Tuesday morning breach. Protecting ourselves involves realizing that it won't happen to us is not a valid security control and maybe, just maybe, updating our antivirus occasionally.
