Cyber Security Training for the Bar
Designed specifically for barristers, clerks and other employees working in chambers.
Cyber attacks are a growing risk for barristers and chambers, with multiple publicised attacks occurring in the past 12 months alone. The effects of these attacks are multi-faceted, from taking entire sets offline for days, impacting barristers’ ability to represent clients, to managing ICO and BSB investigations and impacting the reputations of chambers.
Chambers’ cyber security efforts are only as strong as the weakest link and a lack of cyber training and awareness among barristers and staff leaves sets exposed to cyber attacks and potentially catastrophic losses.
The barrister team at Briefed has extensive experience of advising sets which have suffered data breaches, and have used this unique insight into creating a cyber security module designed specifically for barristers and chambers employees.
As part of our response to the risk of cyber attacks for barristers, we are providing free access to this Cyber Security module for all subscribers to the Briefed Data Security Compliance Framework for Barristers.
What our clients say...
“Nobody offers the same comprehensive level of detail and care that Briefed offers.”
