The DLA Piper attack has legal professionals paying attention, but cyberattacks on law firms are far from unique.

According to a recent report from IT security provider LogicForce, hacking attempts were made on over 200 U.S. law firms between 2016 and 2017, 40 percent of which didn't even know that they had been breached.

Titled “The Law Firm Cybersecurity Scorecard,” the report is the first of a quarterly effort by LogicForce intended to educate both law firms and the corporate legal departments that would hire them of the security issues impacting their industry. John Sweeney, president of LogicForce, said the results present “plenty of opportunities for corporate legal and law firms to get on the same page” with cybersecurity, and that there are “a lot of opportunities for law firms to tighten up their controls and get onboard with what their corporate clients are requesting.”
