How to Find Secure File Sharing for 
Law Firms
All organizations store and share files and data that are sensitive on some level. Health care 
is the No. 1 industry for storing and sharing sensitive files, followed closely by the legal 
industry — which makes secure file sharing for law firms a priority that too often goes 
overlooked.

Why OneDrive and Dropbox 
for Law Firms are 
Insufficient
We’ve warned in the past about using 
the public cloud for storing and sharing 
files that include sensitive information. 
Some firms start by exploring simple 
(and sometimes free) file sharing 
platforms like Dropbox and OneDrive. 
Dropbox and OneDrive are designed for 
ease and efficiency. But is Dropbox 
secure for law firms? Is OneDrive? 
Absolutely not. These platforms leave 
law firms vulnerable to brute force 
attacks that can expose caches of 
sensitive files, data and information.
Configure and 
Enforce Access 
ACboven, wter doeslcrsib:ed the types of access 
controls law firms should have in place when 
storing and sharing sensitive files. Once 
you’ve selected the best FTP provider for your 
business, configure the necessary access 
controls — and then communicate 
expectations to your team members. It’s 
important that all employees fully understand 
the importance of secure file sharing, and that 
they follow processes and best practices for 
secure file sharing such as having access 
rights in only folders that are relevant to 
them. Even good employees can be negligent, 
so providing them with limited access is a 
useful tool in your belt.
