Lawyers may counsel their clients to conduct incident response table-top exercises to prepare for potential cyberattacks, but according to a recent International Legal Technology Association (ILTA) survey, firms aren’t practicing what they’re preaching.

According to ILTA’s 2021 Technology Survey, 62% of its 454 law firm respondents said their firm didn’t conduct incident response table-top exercises. Of those conducting table-top exercises, most (82%) said their IT or security department was involved, while 60% said that the firm’s management or executive committee participates with IT and the security department. But only 26% said all departments participated in the firm’s incident response table-top exercises.
