Our risk-management approach to a company’s cybersecurity needs protects assets, mitigates risks, and creates opportunities for smart growth.
Media reports and stories are featured daily of ongoing, costly cyber attacks on large and small businesses — and the resulting lawsuits and damage to brand reputations. An average data breach is estimated to cost a business close to $6 million.
The best defense against the proliferation of a cyber attack is a good offense. We are pioneers in cyber work, as one of the first law firms in Utah to establish a dedicated team of attorneys for this growing problem. Our cyber security team provides customized and cutting-edge solutions to help clients proactively protect valuable online information.

- Risk management – Identification and mitigation of vulnerabilities;
- Policies and procedures – Tested practices that will stand up in court;
- Breach response – Timely guidance in an emergency situation;
- Education and training – Preparing and empowering managers and employees;
- Corporate governance – Advising on fiduciary obligations in accordance with SEC requirements;

Cybersecurity plans crafted by SCM will go far toward protecting a breached entity against claims.
