Your business is a target. Hackers only need one weakness.

A single cyberattack on one of the UK's family law firms could expose divorce files, financial disclosures and safeguarding records, halt day-to-day operations and trigger regulatory reporting, fines and lasting reputational damage. Small firms are not too small to be targeted. Automated attacks scan every UK business for an easy way in.

Why family law firms are targeted: Family law files combine financial disclosures, addresses of vulnerable clients and child arrangements. Criminals use them for extortion, and abusive ex-partners for tracking.
