Case Study: Arent Fox LLP achieves enhanced client confidentiality and 24x7 threat protection with SecureWorks

Arent Fox LLP - Customer Case Study

Arent Fox LLP, a national law firm with about 400 attorneys and more than 400 support staff, needed to protect client confidentiality amid growing, sophisticated cyber threats and a push toward ISO/IEC 27001 compliance. To supplement its defense‑in‑depth controls, Arent Fox engaged SecureWorks, deploying SecureWorks Managed Security Services and SecureWorks Security & Risk Consulting for 24x7 expert monitoring and incident detection.

SecureWorks implemented Managed iSensor intrusion prevention (AMPD), Advanced Endpoint Threat Detection (AETD) sensors, continuous monitoring from its Counter Threat Operations Centers, plus gap analysis, quarterly penetration tests and managed phishing. As a result, Arent Fox gained improved visibility into security, faster incident response (cleaning infected PCs instead of reimaging), validated client confidentiality assurances and stronger overall protection against threat actors — backed by the 24x7 expertise of SecureWorks.
