Who touched the client files today
The wire was real. The client was not.
Every sign-in, every email that asks for money and every big download leaves a line in the log. Pick a line to see what happened, and what stopped it.
Client-file access log · Example: Whitfield & Ames LawA sample firm, not a client
A normal line.
Devon signs in securely from the courthouse, and the firm's files stay safe on any Wi-Fi. This is what most of the log looks like.
A look-alike address asks to move the settlement wire.
- Address on file
- closings@whitfield-ames.com
- This email
- closings@whitfield-arnes.com
- Sender check
- Fake
"rn" reads as "m" at a glance. Email threat scanning holds it before anyone opens it, and every wire change is confirmed by a call to the number already on file.
The court doesn't email from efilingportalnotice.com.
The button opens a sign-in page built to collect the firm's password. It never reaches Devon's inbox. Phishing training happens at the point of the click, for the one that someday does.
A password, out in the open.
Dark web scanning finds a firm password on a breach list. It is changed the same afternoon, and a stolen password opens nothing.
11:52 pm, every matter at once.
Someone with a stolen login starts pulling every matter out of the case system overnight. Our 24/7 security team flags it and cuts it off.
Example: Whitfield & Ames Law is a sample firm, not a client. The people, times and addresses are made up.
Where a firm breaks first
The wire instructions changed. Nobody called to check.
Client files, filing deadlines and the trust account ledger are what an attacker wants, and email is how they ask for them.
- A spoofed client email asking to change settlement wire instructions.
- A fake court or e-filing notice asking someone to sign in.
- Your own firm's name faked on emails to your clients.
- Laptops in court and at home that nobody has checked in months.
What SHIELDS puts in the way
- Email threat scanning before the inbox
- Secure sign-in on every login
- Dark web scanning for your firm's passwords
- Phishing training at the point of the click
- A security team watching 24/7
Why Us? · A day
A day at Whitfield & Ames Law.
The first save comes before coffee.
Example: Whitfield & Ames Law is a sample law firm, not a client. The staff, callers and times are made up. Your name shows in the hero, the attack replay and the website preview. This day stays a sample.
