For a legal practice, a data breach reaches further than most — privileged client material, trust account data, and dual obligations to both the OAIC and your Law Society. Some practices also fall under AML/CTF Tranche 2 for conveyancing, trust and company work. This check shows where your exposure sits.
The two-minute check gives you an instant read. If you want the full picture, our fixed-price Data Security Review looks at each of these in your business and hands you a prioritised plan.
Where matter data lives
Are client documents or ID records stored in an individual solicitor's or clerk's inbox?
Recording & wearables
Is there a policy for recording devices where privileged conversation happens?
Access control
Does access to matter files end the same day a staff member or contractor leaves?
Trust account data
Is it protected to the standard your Law Society requires?
Privilege in transit
Are privileged documents ever sent over unencrypted email?
Dual-obligation breach plan
Does your response plan cover both OAIC and professional-conduct disclosure duties?
The review is an assessment and a roadmap, done with your cooperation — not a penetration test, not a compliance certification, and not legal advice. We tell you where your gaps are and what to fix first, in plain English. If you'd rather your existing IT provider close them, the report is written so they can. Regulatory references are general information; confirm your specific obligations with your own adviser.
Your review is handled by a senior specialist — not a call centre, not a hand-off. Email us and we'll set up a 15-minute call.
