Managing
the Security and Privacy of Electronic
Data in a Law Office
By
Walter E. Stewart, Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief Operating
Officer
Legal Mutual Liability Insurance Society of Maryland
Our
friends at the Lawyers’ Professional Indemnity Company (LawPro)
in Toronto, Canada were helping me with an article on Identity
Theft when they mentioned they had just completed a new booklet
in their risk management series called “Managing the Security
and Privacy of Electronic Data in a Law Office.” They also
developed two companion papers called “How to Enable the
Security Settings on a Wireless Access Point or Router”
and an “Employee Departure Checklist.” They graciously
offered the use of these excellent resources to our policyholders.
You can access these items by clicking on the links provided below.
These
are excellent tools for your use. The employee departure checklist
alone is excellent and thought provoking even if you’re
not interested in the privacy of electronic data issue.
I must personally thank all the gang at Lawyers’ Professional
Indemnity Company and specifically Dan Pinnington, Director, practicePRO,
for their able assistance and this excellent offer for Legal Mutual
policyholders.
