Cyber is Surging – Here are the Law Firms in the Lead & How to Catch Them

The BTI CyberSavvy 16 Law Firms

It’s all about the quarterbacking

Clients tell us the BTI CyberSavvy 16 bring the following key skills in one package:

Assess the situation quickly

Clients need to respond before all the facts are in. CEOs want answers from their top legal officers now—not when it is all sorted out. Clients want thoughtful and strategic responses immediately based on what everyone knows at the time.

Hyper-Responsive

Think instantaneous, or at least make it seem so. Minutes matter. Time is everything. One innocuous situation can easily turn into an incident. And with today’s situation so fluid, clients want law firms who take deliberate and strategic action.

Scales quickly

Things can and do change almost from moment to moment—the BTI CyberSavvy 16 bring the right resources together to match the level of effort and are ready for whatever may come—as it ebbs and flows—or becomes a tidal wave.

Mobilize

BTI CyberSavvy 16 firms have their administrative acts together too. Clients report they get started quicker and can open new matters faster. When clients see high risk—a seamless startup brings extraordinary value—and comfort.

Bring Others to the Party

Top legal decision makers are convinced almost no law firm has all the experienced resources—the ability to bring in these skill sets is key. Getting to the right people at the right time is equally important—the BTI CyberSavvy 16 not only bring in others to help—they know who to call.

Hyper-Educating Clients

Clients say there is always something to learn. And it doesn’t have to be regulations. It can be about compliance strategies, new policies, insight into budget benchmarks and staffing, or how to help go remote almost overnight.
