Legal Industry Penetration Testing Services That Protect Confidentiality and Trust

Our legal industry penetration testing services help law firms identify real-world security weaknesses across networks, staff behavior, and cloud platforms—before attackers can exploit them.

Law firms handle vast amounts of confidential data—from contracts to case strategies—making them prime targets for cyberattacks.

Without regular testing, legal practices may leave open vulnerabilities in cloud services, exposed credentials, or misconfigured portals that attackers can exploit.

Legal industry penetration testing services simulate these threats to uncover and remediate security risks before a breach occurs.

See why threats are rising in our latest blog post on legal security trends.

Why Penetration Testing Matters for Law Firms

Cyber Risks Unique to the Legal Industry

Credential Theft in Legal SaaS Platforms

Legal professionals often reuse passwords across case systems, client portals, and email. Our legal penetration testing services uncover how attackers can exploit reused or weak credentials.

Improper Cloud Link Sharing

Case files stored in SharePoint or OneDrive are often shared with insecure or stale links. We find and test these exposures during penetration testing engagements.

Phishing Posing as Court Documents

Legal industry phishing campaigns often mimic court filings or legal vendor messages. We simulate these attacks to test staff awareness and defensive controls.

Unmonitored Office Access

Law firm offices with relaxed front desk security are vulnerable to physical intrusions. We test badge enforcement and visitor controls to uncover real-world physical risks.
