   Experts are warning law firms to protect themselves from all viruses -   
   cyber and real - when pivoting to a completely remote workforce as the   
   U.S. responds to the COVID-19 pandemic.   
      
   "Cybersecurity is a moving target," said Ruth Hill Bro, co-chair of   
   the ABA Cybersecurity Legal Task Force and moderator of the American   
   Bar Association webinar "Remote Working in a Time of COVID-19:   
   Cybersecurity Issues You Need to Know." Law firms are attractive   
   targets for hackers and the risk of cyber breaches multiplies as more   
   employees work remotely, raising the stakes for law firms to protect   
   sensitive client data. The outbreak also creates opportunities for   
   hackers and scammers. "There are thousands of COVID-19 scam and   
   malware sites being created daily," Bro said. Train employees not to   
   click on links that offer COVID-19 updates. "We have to educate our   
   team members and our employees about what is happening and what things   
   they shouldn't click on."
