How RelativityOne Keeps Your Data Secure

| Written by Altlaw

No matter what your area of expertise, if you’re a business owner, the chances are that matters of data security have kept you up at night. For legal firms and in-house counsel, these apprehensions are constant.

Today’s ever-expanding landscape of data brings with it ever-expanding forms of threat, and new emerging risks for legal teams to stay on top of. No matter how seemingly large or small a cyberthreat may be, the costs are enough to derail even the most bulletproof long-term business strategies.

According to the Cost of a Data Breach Report from IBM and the Ponemon Institute, the average cost of a data breach in 2020 sits at around £2.9 million.

Now more than ever, legal teams need to ensure their defences are stronger, sturdier and more sophisticated than the threats they face.

Cyberthreats are evolving: so should your protection

It’s 2020. Achieving the information security you need with a reactionary approach is simply not possible anymore.
Security needs to be culturally and systematically embedded into every level of your operations.

And this is for more than just your safety – it’s for that of your clients and customers too. Their trust and loyalty relies on the knowledge that their data is secure in your hands.

For us at Altlaw, the best way to achieve this level of security was through RelativityOne – the primary tool we use to unlock the benefits of cloud-based eDiscovery for our clients

What makes RelativityOne’s security so exceptional?

At Altlaw, we’ve personally found that the security capability of RelativityOne is a head and shoulders above other eDiscovery platforms.

Not just on account of its robust security infrastructure, but also its incredibly skilled support team, who work all hours around the globe to keep information threats at bay.

The strongest security strategies are built on multiple lines of defence.

RelativityOne has numerous lines of defence embedded in the platform’s automated security processes, as well as in the preventative defence measures of their dedicated security support team, Calder7.

Automated security processes

RelativityOne is constantly receiving new investment in order to improve the platform’s technological capabilities, infrastructure, and processes.

Some of its most powerful security functions are performed automatically.

Log automation

The countless different events that occur within the RelativityOne system are constantly monitored for potential security concerns.

Whether it’s a login, the creation of a new user, or the processes that constitute data collection, they all feed into Relativity’s sophisticated alerting system.

This system uses a smart, rule-based framework to identify suspicious activity, before automatically issuing an alert if something isn’t right.
