New Cloud Security Standards for Law Firms

March 29, 2016

At ABA TECHSHOW, Clio announced on March 17th that the Legal Cloud Computing Association (LCCA) had released the first set of cloud security standards drafted specifically for the legal profession. There are 21 standards in Version 1.0 of the document. Jack Newton is the CEO of Clio and the current president of the LCCA.

Newton says the standards have been well-received and will be updated as technology evolves to meet new threats. The inaugural members of the LCCA were Clio, DirectLaw, NetDocuments, Nextpoint, Inc., Onit, Inc. and Rocket Matter, LLC.

The standards are written simply, in clear English – though non-technical folks may need a bit of explanation about certain terms. But it seems to be a very good start at standards that have been sorely needed.
