As recently as March, The New York Times ran an article by Mahew Goldstein about big corporate clients "demanding that their law firms take more steps to guard against online intrusions that could compromise sensitive information as global concerns about hacker threats mount." But if you think your smaller firm is off the hook, the New York Law Journal also ran a story on banks puing the same kind of pressure on mid-sized law firms as they do the big firms. All you need is one case or one client that makes you unpopular with any one of the hundreds of hackivist groups and you become a target.
