Program Speaker: Barron Henley
The Illinois Rules of Professional Conduct Rule 1.6(e) requires a lawyer to make "reasonable efforts" to prevent the disclosure of confidential client information. Comment 19 further stipulates that "reasonable precautions" must be taken to prevent client information from falling into the wrong hands.
In a digital world, the exact meaning of "reasonable efforts" and "reasonable precautions" may be subject to debate; however, it's hard to argue that doing nothing to protect client data would meet that standard.
You don't have to be a security expert or techie to protect yourself and your office…and half the battle is simply knowing what questions to ask, which isn't nearly as complicated as it sounds.
Learn how to cover all the bases of computer, smartphone, tablet, email, wireless, and document encryption with this one-hour seminar, as well as the fundamentals of backing up your electronic data, how to establish best practices in your office, and where to find inexpensive or free tools that will make sure your confidential information remains confidential.
