Client data challenge

Protecting Client Information in a More Connected Legal Environment

Law firms manage some of their clients' most sensitive information while attorneys, staff, clients and outside parties increasingly need access from different locations.

The challenge is enabling that collaboration without unnecessarily exposing infrastructure, losing control over client information or disrupting established legal workflows.

Confidential Client Information

Legal matters can contain highly sensitive client, personal, financial and business information that must remain carefully controlled.

Distributed Legal Data

Matter information may reside across file servers, NAS, SharePoint, cloud storage and multiple offices.

External Collaboration

Attorneys regularly collaborate with clients, co-counsel, experts, consultants and other outside parties.

Access Governance

Firms need to control who can access matter information, what they can do with it and maintain visibility into access and sharing activity.

Keep data in place

Move Access and Governance — Not the Data

FileFlex Enterprise overlays existing legal IT infrastructure to provide Zero Trust Data Access to matter files wherever they already reside.

Instead of requiring firms to move confidential information into another repository, FileFlex provides secure access across existing on-premises, cloud and hybrid environments.

No mandatory migration. No parallel storage repository. No need to restructure existing client data.

Zero Trust That Fits the Legal Workflow

Work From Familiar Windows Applications and Workflows

Attorneys and legal staff spend their day working with documents, correspondence and matter files through familiar Windows applications and workflows. Security shouldn't require them to adopt an entirely different way of working.

FileFlex Enterprise integrates into Windows, allowing authorized remote files to appear within familiar Windows environments and supporting standard Open/Save operations.

Legal teams work the way they already work while FileFlex governs access behind the scenes.

Distributed AccessProvide controlled access to legal information across offices and remote locations.
No Data MigrationContinue working with matter files in their existing storage locations.

Protect what clients entrust to you

Protect Confidential Client Information

Legal matters can contain privileged communications, personally identifiable information, financial records, intellectual property and other highly confidential client information.

FileFlex Enterprise extends Zero Trust principles directly to access to that data, giving firms granular control over who can access specific files and folders and what they can do with them.

Least-Privilege Access

Give users access only to the matter files and folders they are authorized to use.

Control Sharing and Downloading

Apply view-only, download and sharing restrictions where appropriate.

Controlled External Access

Provide clients and outside parties controlled access to specific information without unnecessarily exposing underlying infrastructure.

Activity Visibility

Maintain an activity log of access and sharing actions with export to SIEM/Syslog.

Controlled legal matter collaboration ecosystem

Collaborate without exposure

One Matter. Many Participants. Controlled Data Access.

Modern legal matters frequently extend beyond the walls of a single law firm.

Attorneys collaborate with clients, co-counsel, experts, consultants and other outside parties. Different participants may need access to different documents at different stages of a matter.

FileFlex Enterprise provides a controlled data access layer across this distributed legal ecosystem while allowing the organization responsible for the information to maintain governance over access.

Secure client collaboration

Create Secure Matter and Client Workspaces

Legal teams frequently need controlled spaces for exchanging documents with clients and outside parties.

FileFlex Enterprise allows authorized users to create secure virtual data rooms around existing information, providing controlled access to specific files and folders without requiring the firm to move those documents into another data repository.

Create secure collaboration spaces around the data you already have.

Data, not the network

Give Outside Parties Access to Data — Not the Network

Clients, co-counsel, experts and consultants may need access to specific legal documents. They don't need access to the firm's underlying network or storage infrastructure.

FileFlex Enterprise mediates access to authorized data, allowing firms to provide granular external access without unnecessarily extending network access to outside parties.

Existing legal data

One Access Layer Across Existing Data Repositories

Law firms rarely store all client and matter information in one place.

FileFlex Enterprise provides a common Zero Trust Data Access layer across existing storage environments — without forcing consolidation into a new repository.

Built for real legal workflows

Extend the Life of Existing Legal Storage Infrastructure

Law firms can modernize access to existing file servers, NAS and other storage without moving years of client and matter information into another repository.

Modernize access without unnecessarily replacing the infrastructure that already works.

Security That Works Behind the Scenes

Every request for matter data passes through FileFlex Enterprise policy enforcement before access is granted.

Users do not connect directly to the underlying storage system. FileFlex mediates each request, applies access policies and retrieves only authorized information through its secure connector architecture.

The data layer

Complete Zero Trust at the Data Layer

Law firms have invested in protecting identities, endpoints, networks and applications.

But those controls ultimately surround something even more important:

The confidential client information, legal documents and intellectual property entrusted to the firm.

FileFlex Enterprise extends Zero Trust directly to that data, providing granular access control to files and folders across existing storage environments.

Complete Zero Trust security at the legal data layer

Protect client information without rebuilding your infrastructure

Your Client Data Is Already There. Secure Access to It.

Legal matters contain privileged communications, personally identifiable information, financial records, intellectual property.

FileFlex Enterprise extends Zero Trust directly to access to that information, giving firms granular control over who can access specific files and folders and what they can do with them.
