Rundlewalker Retains Cyber Essentials Certification.

We are pleased to announce that Rundlewalker has once again successfully renewed our Cyber Essentials certification - a UK Government-backed cybersecurity standard that helps protect organisations against a wide range of common online threats.

As a legal firm handling sensitive client information, the protection of data is at the heart of everything we do. Our continued certification demonstrates our commitment to maintaining robust cyber defences and upholding the trust our clients place in us.

What is Cyber Essentials?
Cyber Essentials is a government-approved scheme developed by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC). It sets out a baseline of technical controls designed to guard against the most prevalent forms of cyber attack. These include controls around firewalls, secure configuration, user access, malware protection, and software updates.

Why it matters for a legal practice.
The legal sector is increasingly targeted by cybercriminals due to the volume and sensitivity of the information we manage. At Rundlewalker, we recognise that our clients rely on us not only for expert legal advice but also for the secure handling of their personal, financial and business data.

By meeting the standards set out by Cyber Essentials, we are able to:

• Demonstrate our commitment to cybersecurity and data protection
• Reduce the risk of data breaches or service disruptions
• Provide assurance to clients and partners that we take cyber risks seriously and are actively managing them

Reassurance for our clients.
Whether you're instructing us on a property matter, a personal injury claim, or a complex matrimonial dispute, you can be confident that your information is being handled securely. Our re-certification confirms that we continue to follow best practice in defending against common threats such as phishing, malware and unauthorised access.

In a digital age, trust is built not just on legal expertise, but also on the steps taken to safeguard your privacy and confidentiality. Cyber Essentials helps us deliver that trust.
