Case Study: AmLaw100 Firm upholds lawyer-client privilege and boosts security operations productivity 57% with Trustwave

AmLaw100 Firm - Customer Case Study

AmLaw100 Firm, a top global law firm with nearly 2,000 lawyers serving more than half of the Fortune 100, was struggling with an understaffed in-house security team, difficulty recruiting, and an inability to properly maintain expensive security tools amid rising industry threats. Seeking outside expertise, the firm turned to Trustwave to help manage its enterprise SIEM, intrusion detection and prevention systems, and next‑generation firewalls, and to consult on vulnerability management, detection and response.

Trustwave fully outsourced management of those technologies and provided Global Threat Operations specialists as an extension of the firm’s security team, delivering 24/7 certified coverage and scaling the team three‑fold. The engagement increased security operations productivity by 57%, extended coverage, quality and reliability at a fraction of the internal cost, and freed the firm’s IT staff to perform a broader risk assessment and roadmap for future security improvements.
