For cybersecurity and data security, the Legal Desk service offered by netforLegaL has a strong operational focus. As with our legal assistance, our goal is to ensure that the Client can count on our availability and, above all, our speed always. The service meets the need to outsource the handling of legal issues in less complex business contexts and can also be a valuable support to the in-house legal department in more structured organisations.
The involvement of a pool of senior professionals — organised by area of specialisation — allows the Client to capitalise on the advisory experience gained, ensuring constant regulatory updates in its sector. The multidisciplinary approach also delivers attractive economies of scale.
Our areas of work include:
- Compliance with the security measures under Article 32 GDPR and with security by design principles;
- Support with compliance with the cybersecurity regulatory frameworks (CRA, NIS2, DORA);
- Security assessment of external suppliers and review of the work of System Administrators;
- Security assessment of applications and information systems;
- Cybersecurity awareness and staff training;
- Data breach management and dedicated hotlines;
- Business continuity and disaster recovery (ISO 22301).
For each Client the service involves a “contact lawyer”, who coordinates the work and has an ongoing relationship with the company. The presence of this figure brings:
- A stronger relationship of trust with the Client;
- The progressive personalisation of the service, as knowledge of the company context steadily grows;
- The guarantee of a constant legal presence, which also plays a proactive role towards the Client.
As for how the service is offered, the methodology is that of a typical help desk: maximum freedom and flexibility for the Client to set upfront an annual budget for the initiative, to make the most of its economies of scale.
The expected result is to turn what has perhaps been perceived until now as the cost of regulatory compliance into an insurance policy — or an investment — in the peace of mind of doing things properly.
