PEER TO PEER: THE QUARTERLY MAGA ZINE OF ILTA 88 ASK THE EXPERT Jamie: LegalSEC is fantastic. In just a few years, we've made great strides. On the steering committee, we have some great CIOs, leaders from prominent law firms and some folks from midsize firms, which is great because we get to provide the ILTA membership with great insights from a broad spectrum of perspectives. ILTA is championing an initiative called LegalSEC, which aims to provide the legal community with guidelines for risk- based information security programs that are achievable, measurable and mature. You're working on LegalSEC. Tell me something you're excited about related to the initiative. Sherri: Oh, I'm very excited about LegalSEC. We have done so much over the last couple of years, and we've got so much on our plate coming up. We really want to be the place law firm professionals come to for information regarding security in the legal industry. We're focusing our efforts around ISO 207001 as our standard. With all the initiatives we are or will be working on, expect a lot of good stuff from LegalSEC. Sherri Vollick Sherri Vollick serves as the IT Security Manager at Holland & Knight LLP.
