Secure File Transfer Solutions Important for Legal Industry

The need for secure file transfer solutions has recently been in the news with the nation's healthcare organizations pushing for electronic medical records. However, the legal industry also has a growing need for the technology.

With more law firms and corporate legal departments utilizing digital dictation, these organizations also have a need to transfer digital files securely. Oftentimes, the information contained in such files is sensitive data on a case, defendant, plaintiff and witnesses. If exposed, damage could be done to the case and all involved.

That's why legal professionals are encouraged to avoid using unsecured methods, such as email and USB flash drives.

Also, secure file transfer protocols allow for a quick exchange of documents, which is always key in litigation when time is a factor.

"Legal IT departments are striving to reduce the burdensome administration of traditional file transfer methods while offering user friendly solutions," said Charlie Magliato, legal practice manager of a secure file transfer solution vendor.
