This type of infrastructure offers a turn-key solution for law firms’ explicit needs.

“Don’t trust!” Jenkins shared with On the Money listeners. “Data is a very expensive commodity… Guard it!”

QloudSecure has a proprietary six step process called QloudPrint, which helps businesses close gaps for good. It includes:

1) Discovering risk

2) Assessing the potential business impact

3) Designing a plan to close the gaps

4) Deploying security controls, as well as providing policies and procedures

5) Educating employees on best security practices to reduce potential issues going forward

6) Managing the service for businesses that do not have access to a good IT resource

Everything is customized to a business’ specific environment and tailored towards small to medium law firms.
