The North Carolina State Bar is pleased to announce the launch of a free and anonymous Cyber Security Self-Assessment for lawyers, made possible through the sponsorship and support of Lawyers Mutual. This initiative reflects a shared commitment to empower lawyers with the resources and guidance needed to improve cybersecurity practices and safeguard against growing cyber threats.
Protecting sensitive client information is more important than ever. This free self-assessment is a practical tool to help you identify your firm's cybersecurity infrastructure, policies, and habits, and then provide you with a set of resources tailored to the areas you identify as needing improvement. The self-assessment is completely confidential—results are not shared with the State Bar.
As an incentive for participating, all members who complete the self-assessment will receive 1 hour of technology training CLE credit.
Start the Assessment
This free and confidential self-assessment (the State Bar will not see your individual data) guides you through a series of modules with questions designed to evaluate your firm's IT and cybersecurity infrastructure, policies, and practices. The assessment will not dictate what to do or judge what’s right or wrong. Instead, it encourages you to reflect on your firm's strengths and weaknesses and provides resources tailored to the areas you identify for improvement.
Complete the Affidavit
After completing the self-assessment, you'll need to complete a form to request one hour of technology training CLE credit for your participation in this program.
