Security Challenge
The professionals at DisputeSoft faced a familiar challenge in the legal industry.
Email – the easiest, most convenient and cost-effective way for lawyers to interact and exchange information with clients – poses inherent risks of inadvertent disclosure of confidential information.
In addition – they were looking to avoid sending their large files through an additional FTP site.
Both of these challenges needed to be solved with a product that offered encryption, ease-of-use, and transparency to the clients they communicate with.
Security Solution:
SenditCertified
Personal SecureInbox with Email Signature Link
Each forensic investigator at DisputeSoft was provisioned a SenditCertified account, accompanied by a SecureInbox.
The SecureInbox is easily accessible by clients and others that need to communicate securely with one of the lawyers, via a link and button clearly provided in the regular email signature.
This solution pairing allows DisputeSoft to have instant access to proof of delivery records, a private SecureVault for sensitive document files, and a method for secure end-to-end communication with anyone involved in their caseload.
