About the Program

In this session, Christian Kelly, CTO of Xantrion, breaks down ransomware as a form of cyber extortion, explaining its four attack stages—Infiltration, Encryption, Ransom Demand, and Consequences. He also shares that since ransomware is responsible for 33% of breaches in growing firms and has an average cost of $4.88 million per incident, prevention is critical.


The presentation covers proven DIY strategies, including Enhanced MFA, system patching, security training, isolated backups, and advanced endpoint detection for preventing ransomware breaches. It also provides insights into key questions to ask outsourced IT providers to ensure robust cybersecurity if outsourcing makes sense for your firm.


In short, this session equips growing law firms with the tools and knowledge to stay ahead of ransomware threats and safeguard client data.

This program is presented by the Privacy & Cybersecurity Law Section, chaired by Christina Tusan. Find out more about the section at BHBA.org.
