Case Study: Ward Hadaway achieves secure client confidentiality with Egress Switch

Top 100 law firm Ward Hadaway selects Egress Switch to provide firm wide secure encryption standards and complete confidentiality when sharing client information

Ward Hadaway, a Top 100 UK law firm, needed a way to protect sensitive client information and meet strict confidentiality obligations while keeping email sharing simple for staff and clients. The firm wanted stronger security than basic password protection or portals could offer, and chose Egress Switch from Egress to help standardize secure communication across the business.

Egress implemented Egress Switch with Microsoft Outlook integration, giving Ward Hadaway easy-to-use encrypted email, large file transfer, media encryption, and “follow the data” controls to restrict forwarding, printing, or saving after delivery. The result was end-to-end data assurance, improved efficiency, and a stronger client offering, helping Ward Hadaway differentiate itself while reducing the risk of data breaches and potential ICO fines.
