What does cyber security have to do with your interviews?

Let's look at some stats from the Solicitors Regulation Authority:

• In 2017, the SRA received 52% more reports of cybercrime than in 2016.
• 60% of law firms reported an information security incident in 2017.
• 86% of the top law firms said they were either extremely or somewhat concerned about a cyber attack.

Over the past couple of years, cyber attacks have influenced elections, disrupted healthcare and brought down companies. Many boardrooms have realised they must take cyber security seriously to safeguard their data, their customers and their reputation.
