In this fireside chat, Navroop Mitter (ArmorText) and Matthew Welling (Crowell & Moring) unpacked how attackers target email, video, and messaging to erode trust—and why law firms must plan for periods when primary communications can’t be relied on. Drawing on their 2023 Cyber Resilience: Incident Response Tabletop Exercises guide and real-world tabletops, they covered ethical and contractual notification duties, preserving privilege, and avoiding compliance pitfalls when shifting out-of-band. The throughline: practice a comms-first IR plan that stays secure, auditable, and client-defensible even under active attack.
