Relativity, a global legal and compliance technology company, kicks off its second annual virtual event, Spotlight: APAC, which aims to bring legal and compliance professionals together to explore regional trends and key insights.

Digital Transformation in APAC Drives Increased Focus on Security

The percentage of workers permanently working from home is expected to double in 2021, and by 2025, an estimated 70% of the workforce will work remotely at least five days per month. The shift to a more remote workforce and increase in collaborative work platforms comes on the heels of Southeast Asia’s rapid pace of digital transformation.

The changing security threat landscape for APAC, risk mitigation strategies and amplified need for data security has never been more crucial with more than 80% of APAC organisations suffering a cyber attack in 2020. Research on the threat landscape in APAC conducted by Relativity’s security team in February found that the APAC region is in a unique situation to be the new “hot” target for cybercrime. Law firms specifically tend to be a common mark for bad actors as a result of their collection of high profile, highly confidential information.

“Relativity’s approach to security is to work hand in hand with our customers to create a united front against threat actors,” said Amanda Fennell, Chief Security Officer at Relativity. “Our proactive security posture aims to keep our clients aware of evolving threats to minimise risk, avoid major incidents and ensure a superior client experience.”

For more security-specific insights, Relativity will host the following sessions during Spotlight: APAC:
