There is little a law firm or legal department can do when a cyberattack or data breach strikes, other than rely on their information governance system and data breach preparation. But this doesn’t mean that other companies cannot step in to act, such as security incident response platforms (SIRP), which are vendor technology and support teams that come online when everything else shuts down.
A report by Markets and Markets found that the SIRP sector is set to reach $170 billion by 2020, and one company finding success in the market is DFLabs. Dario Forte, founder and CEO of DFLabs told Legaltech News that the startup was launched in “order to intercept a main customer pain: the impossibility of responding to incidents in a timely manner and having them ‘under control.’… We were born as incident responders, investigating an average of 2.3 petabytes of data per year. Then we got into software business, selling the first version of our platform in 2013.”
