Don’t Allow Traditional Email to Damage Your Business or Law Practice: Secure your sensitive attorney and client communications with Dialawg™

INDIANAPOLIS, June 1, 2009 — Communication security is more important than ever—in fact, your livelihood as an attorney or businessperson may depend on it. As lawyers and clients rely increasingly upon the benefits of instantaneous electronic communication, they are often unwittingly exposing themselves to security flaws inherent in traditional email and file sharing. Although certain online services have been developed to address these issues in piecemeal fashion, unified and secure communication specifically for the legal professional has been largely unavailable at an affordable price. But why is security so important, particularly in email? Imagine you send a traditional unencrypted email with confidential information about a pressing business decision to your client, with the contract you need to discuss attached. Despite the measures you have developed within your own organization to prevent outside attacks, your email leaves your computer network and travels to your client’s sever. During that process, the following could occur: - Interception: an eavesdropper could capture and read the message, or obtain the login credentials to your account; permitting: - Privacy Invasion: because intercepted information could be copied and transmitted publicly, or used to obtain additional information; leading to: - Identity Theft: whereby the message could be modified and redirected, making it appear to come from you; which perpetuates: - Uncertainty: as to who actually sent the message and what the original contents were; which results in: - Loss of Control: over your own messages, when, how, and to whom they are transmitted, and where they are eventually stored and accessed. Until today, solutions to these problems were complicated and expensive.
