Your Partner for Cybersecurity Considerations in the Legal Sector
Pratum has a long track record of identifying, preserving, analyzing, and presenting digital evidence. Our experts are well-versed in securing admissible evidence with efficient processes that keep your costs manageable. And we’ll help ensure that you’re protecting your own data, too. We answer key questions including:
- Did someone exfiltrate critical company data before they left their job?
- Can we narrow the eDiscovery process to a more reasonable data set?
- What is recoverable from devices we subpoenaed?
- Is valuable information hidden behind the words visible in the file?
- Has anyone tampered with the emails presented as evidence?
- How can we estimate the cost of acquiring evidence in advance?
- Is opposing counsel making a reasonable eDiscovery request?
- What are best practices for protecting our own data?
- How can we manage cyber insurance costs?
- What testing do we need to confirm our data is safe?
- How can we protect data without inconveniencing our team?
With Pratum, we have been able to delegate projects, and we don’t have to give them much guidance. They’ve been able to think like lawyers and deliver work that lawyers can actually utilize.”

Key Factors in Data Acquisition & Security for the Legal Industry
Pratum supports attorneys and law firms in these areas:
Digital Investigations
Our process identifies the person (or people) behind the security incident. We make sense of data in context by attempting to determine who was involved, what they were doing, and when they did it.
Acquisition of Storage Media
We go far beyond making a copy. We preserve as much data as possible in its exact state, including metadata.
Acquisition of Mobile Devices
We attempt to acquire data from the entire device, including text messages, emails, instant messages, browser activity, photos, GPS/location data and more.
Defense Against Ransomware & Other Common Attacks
We’ll guide you toward a layered strategy for stopping attacks that produce costly downtime.
Budget Guidance
We’ll analyze your risks and assign costs so you can make informed choices about cybersecurity spending.
Secure Communications
Our consultants will help you select policies and tools to guard against business email compromise (BEC) and other common threats, and we’ll advise on best practices for encryption and safe data transmission.
