Case Study: National Business Law Firm strengthens cybersecurity and boosts client confidence with Fortra Vulnerability Management

Law Firm Strengthens Cybersecurity, Improves Customer Confidence with Robust Vulnerability Management

A national business law firm wanted to strengthen its security posture and move beyond basic compliance (ABA, HIPAA, GDPR) after recognizing law firms are frequent targets for cyberattacks. With a limited IT team, the firm sought a trusted partner to deliver highly accurate vulnerability scanning and management that would reduce false positives, be easy to implement and use, improve prioritization, and lower costs.

The firm implemented Fortra Vulnerability Management (Fortra VM) with a Pro subscription and a dedicated Personal Security Analyst to run internal and external scans and manage the vulnerability lifecycle. The deployment cut scan times by ~80%, delivered under 1% false positives, produced over 40% cost savings in three years, improved the firm’s Security GPA and prioritization, and increased client confidence in the firm’s ability to protect sensitive data.
