IT Support & Cybersecurity for Law Firms

Abuzz Technologies gives small and mid-sized law firms in Philadelphia and South Jersey the IT support and cybersecurity that keep client files private, settlement wires safe and your attorneys billing instead of fighting computer problems.

Why Law Firms Are a Prime Target

Law firms hold exactly what criminals want: privileged communications, client financial records, and trust accounts that move large sums on a predictable schedule. Most small firms run without an in-house IT person, which makes them easier to get into than the banks and corporations they work with.

The ABA’s 2023 Cybersecurity TechReport found that 29% of law firms have already experienced a security breach. The FBI reported nearly $21 billion in cybercrime losses for 2025, with email fraud among the costliest schemes.

 

The Threats We Stop

  • Settlement and trust account wire fraud: Criminals watch firm email threads, then impersonate a partner, client or opposing counsel to redirect a disbursement.
  • Phishing and impersonation: Fake “court notice” and “client document” emails are built to steal attorney passwords.
  • Ransomware before a deadline: Encrypted case files the week of a filing mean missed deadlines and malpractice exposure.
  • Departing attorney data theft: Client lists and case files walk out the door when access isn’t removed on day one.

 

Your Ethical Duty to Protect Client Data

ABA Model Rule 1.6 calls for reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized disclosure of client information, and ABA Formal Opinion 483 addresses a lawyer’s duties to monitor for, respond to and notify clients of a breach. We don’t give legal advice. We give you the security controls, written policies and incident response plan that support the decisions you make about your obligations.

 

What Abuzz Does for Your Firm

  • Email security and anti-phishing: Filtering that catches impersonation attempts before they reach attorneys and staff.
  • Wire fraud prevention: Email authentication on your domain, multi-factor sign-in and a simple verify-by-phone policy for every wire instruction.
  • Secure client file sharing: Encrypted sharing so clients never receive sensitive documents as plain email attachments.
  • Managed IT and help desk: Proactive monitoring and patching for every device, plus fast, friendly support when something breaks.
  • Backup and disaster recovery: Encrypted offsite backups of case files and Microsoft 365, so ransomware doesn’t decide your court calendar.
  • Security awareness training: Short training and phishing simulations that turn staff into your first line of defense.
