Society sets up secure channel

The Law Society of Scotland has a new means of sending confidential information securely
16th October 2017

To boost its cybersecurity and comply with data protection regulations, the Law Society of Scotland is making some important changes to the way it communicates sensitive or confidential information.

It is using a new solution for sending confidential information securely via email and file transfer: Egress Switch.

The system will ensure that when sensitive or confidential information needs to be shared, it is done securely.

More information is available on the website at www.lawscot.org.uk/switch
