Global security issues and technical news from Network Box CTO, Mark Webb-Johnson.
This month, Network Box’s Managing Director, Michael Gazeley, discusses Cybersecurity Imperatives for the Legal Profession. Modern law firms are no longer just targets for traditional crimes; they have become prime targets for cybercriminals, who are attracted by the vast amounts of confidential client information contained within each firm’s digital infrastructure. Unfortunately, many firms fail to implement comprehensive cybersecurity measures to safeguard this sensitive data. On pages 2 to 4, we highlight the threats facing law firms and suggest strategies to protect both their practices and their clients.

This month, we are discussing our new mail portal system, Box Mail. Previously, Network Box launched our Mail Portal system, which allowed end-users to personally whitelist/blacklist emails and empowered them to manage their own email protection – whilst remaining under the overall global organizational policy. However, there were some constraints, and Box Mail was developed to eliminate these. On pages 2 to 3, we discuss how Network Box has addressed these issues, and highlight Box Mail’s key features and how it will improve the overall user experience.
On page 4, we highlight the set of enhancements and fixes to be released in this month’s Patch Tuesday for NBRS-5 and our cloud services.
In other news, Network Box had an article titled “Cybersecurity: The New Frontier of Physical Security,” published in the HKSA, and was the cover story of the latest issue of Asia Law Business Journal. Additionally, Network Box has compiled key In the Boxing Ring articles in the Network Box Technology Review.
Happy New Year! This month, we are talking about Pigeonholing. As a species, we like to categorize things, as it is helpful to break things down and group things together – divide and conquer. However, sometimes, we take this too far and start pigeonholing unnecessarily. With cybersecurity, at the start, there were firewalls, then UTMs and NGFWs. Today, we have a plethora of buzzwords – SIEM, EDP, EDR, XDR, MSSP, MDR, SASE, PAAS, WAF, SOAR, SECaaS, SD-WAN, Edge Security, and dozens more small contenders. The bottom line is that this is all marketing fluff. On pages 2 to 3, we cut through all the buzz and hype, and highlight what is truly important in protecting you.
