The most targeted sector you will never read about.
Nation-state actors and ransomware groups target law firms because you hold M&A data, litigation strategy, and privileged client information. Blacklight monitors document access, email forwarding rules, and credential use across every matter and every partner.
The pattern is published.
Notable incidents and active campaigns in your sector. The attacker techniques are documented. The regulator timelines are running. Blacklight contains the same patterns autonomously, before the disclosure window opens.

Williams & Connolly, 2025: Chinese state actor via zero-day
Law firms hold the M&A data, the litigation strategy, the privileged client communications. Nation-state actors and Silent Ransom Group both know it. A zero-day on an edge device gives them a foothold. Williams & Connolly confirmed a limited number of attorney email accounts were affected and has disputed that M&A or litigation-strategy material was taken, but the pattern is the risk: one bad forwarding rule away from quiet mailbox access, one matter at a time. Blacklight flags anomalous bulk document access per matter, per partner, in real time. Email forwarding-rule tampering detected before the first external message leaves. Credential compromise on Okta/Azure AD contained before lateral movement. Privilege-aware audit trail respects attorney-client confidentiality: agents log behaviour, not document content.
- Correlated against live threat intel in seconds, not hours.
- Contained autonomously, before the human analyst arrives.
- Regulator-ready evidence, bundled and pre-drafted.
Four moves,
on autopilot.
Every action is logged, explained, and reversible. The analyst always has the last word, but they get the case ready-made.
- Detect bulk document access anomalies matter-by-matter, partner-by-partner
- Email forwarding-rule tampering flagged in real time, including BEC precursors
- Contain credential compromise before Azure AD or Okta lateral movement begins
- Privilege-aware audit trail that respects attorney-client confidentiality

security looks like.
Sixty minutes, under your control. See the platform run on a pre-loaded, anonymised environment, watch one real incident handled end to end, and map it to your sector, without connecting a single data source.
- 01 A live tour on a pre-loaded, anonymised environment, running from minute one, not slides.
- 02 One real incident, detected, investigated and contained, written up as a regulator-ready report.
- 03 Mapped to your world: your sources, your sector's threats and your regulators.
- 04 The questions your board will ask: deployment, residency, security, integrations and TCO.
No connectors or data required from you. A proof-of-value on your own telemetry is the next step, never the ask on a first call.
