Geopolitical conflict does not stay confined to physical battlefields anymore. It spills into cyberspace, and businesses across the United States can become collateral damage. Following recent U.S. and Israeli military strikes against Iranian targets, cybersecurity intelligence sources are warning that organizations should expect a measurable increase in cyber threat activity tied to the conflict. This is not hypothetical. Cyber operations are already occurring globally, with

Cyber incidents rarely unfold slowly. They happen on an ordinary Tuesday morning. An employee clicks a link. An account is accessed unexpectedly. Funds are redirected. Files become unavailable. Clients begin calling. In those moments, what determines the outcome is not luck. It is preparation. For law firms and CPA firms especially, a cyber incident is not just an IT issue. It is an operational event, a financial risk, and potentially a regulatory obligation. When minutes mat

In January 2026, news surfaced that the acting director of CISA uploaded sensitive government documents marked “for official use only” into a public version of ChatGPT. While the files were not formally classified, they were intended to remain within secure internal systems. The incident triggered automated security alerts and sparked serious discussion around AI governance and responsible use. This is not just a government story. It is a wake-up call for every organization.

Most organizations assume that if a piece of software is widely used and well-known, it must be safe. Unfortunately, that assumption no longer holds true. A recent incident involving the popular Notepad++ application illustrates this risk. Attackers didn’t exploit a flaw in the software itself. Instead, they compromised the infrastructure that delivers updates, allowing malicious files to be quietly served in place of legitimate ones. To users, everything looked normal.Behind

Most cybersecurity incidents don’t start with a sophisticated exploit or a zero-day vulnerability. They start with a person... A rushed click. A convincing email. A fake login page that looks just real enough. That’s why cybersecurity awareness training isn’t optional anymore. At a minimum, every organization should conduct security awareness training annually. But in today’s threat landscape, organizations that rely solely on once-a-year training are still leaving themselves

Smart technology has quietly made its way into the workplace. From smart TVs in conference rooms to voice assistants, wireless printers, security cameras, and even personal smart devices brought in by employees, these tools are designed for convenience. But there’s a growing issue many businesses don’t realize: not all smart devices are built with business-grade security in mind. When these devices connect to your office Wi-Fi, they can introduce cybersecurity risks that exte

The beginning of a new year is the perfect time for law firms to reassess priorities, evaluate risk, and ensure the right safeguards are in place. While cybersecurity is often pushed aside in favor of more immediate business needs, the reality is that cyber risk continues to increase at a pace most firms are not prepared for. Law firms remain a high-value target for cybercriminals due to the sensitive client data they store, including financial records, personal information,

AI tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, and countless industry-specific applications are rapidly becoming part of everyday workflows in professional services. CPAs and attorneys are already using AI to draft emails, summarize documents, conduct research, and analyze data faster than ever before. AI is not slowing down. The question is not if your firm will adopt AI, but whether you can do it safely. The real danger does not come from the technology itself. Th

Our cybersecurity team is tracking a new, highly targeted phishing campaign specifically going after law firms and legal professionals. These attacks are designed to trick recipients into opening fake voicemail messages that secretly install malicious code on their computers. How the Scam Works Victims receive an email that looks like a legitimate voicemail notification, often with a message like “You have an expired voicemail”  or “New message waiting.” When the link or atta

As we observe Cybersecurity Awareness Month this October, it’s the perfect time to revisit one of the most foundational security issues many organizations still face: unsupported operating systems.The clock is ticking on Windows 10 — and if your business is still running it in production, you need a plan. Why This Matters Now On October 14, 2025 , Microsoft will formally end support for Windows 10 (version 22H2). What this means: After that date, Windows 10 will no longer rec

Even the biggest names in tech aren’t immune to downtime. Earlier today, Amazon Web Services (AWS) — one of the world’s largest cloud providers — experienced a major outage that disrupted countless websites and applications across industries. For many businesses, this meant more than just a temporary inconvenience. Operations slowed. Sales stalled. Customer communications stopped. It’s a reminder that cybersecurity isn’t only about protecting your data from hackers — it’s als
