Technology Overview
DLF’s technology environment is designed to support our legal teams 24 hours a day and seven days a week as they perform complex and diverse work for clients. Utilizing secure, reliable collaboration tools is a cornerstone of our architecture. Our systems are built upon a combination of on-premise and cloud-based applications designed to allow for secure, encrypted access to work resources from anywhere in the world.
Our critical work utilizes a variety of systems and tools located on-premise and in the cloud. Our systems are designed to enable secure communications and document exchanges across authenticated devices.
DLF's legal technology platform is designed to leverage both on-premise and cloud-based solutions for handling client documents and information. Accordingly, we are able to tailor our approach to meet the specific requirements of each client and each matter.
Information Security
We utilize internal and external monitoring tools designed to deliver data and network safety.
Encryption plays a key role in our security — we encrypt data at rest and in motion. We also deploy both firewalls and intrusion detection and prevention systems, and continuously monitor our resources from our network operations center.
The Firm’s application suite is centralized and virtualized, avoiding the need for local storage of client data. This improves our information security and results in faster and more reliable systems.
While security tools are critical, nothing is more important than involving our attorneys and staff in the security process. On an annual basis, all personnel must review and agree to comply with Firm security policies, attend a mandatory in-person ethics training and complete a security awareness training program.
Reliability
DLF selects as partners highly respected names in technology — including Citrix and Microsoft — in constructing and supporting our technological workplace. It is important that our applications and resources work together and that Firm technology is able to stay ahead of the curve.
Our Standards
DLF team has always been committed to security and confidentiality, which are engineered into our technological environment.
