Canalini Consulting Group

We have officially launched a new vCISO service. Law firms are under more pressure than ever from clients, insurers, and regulators to prove that their data is secure and their controls are tested. Canalini’s new Virtual CISO (vCISO) services bring executive-level security leadership to firms that don’t have (or don’t need) a full-time CISO. We deliver strategy, governance, and audit-ready confidence that scales with your firm. To help firms understand where they stand, we’re offering a complimentary 45-minute Cybersecurity or Governance Assessment. Each session is led by a Canalini vCISO and benchmarks your readiness against NIST and ISO frameworks, with a simple 60-day roadmap to strengthen compliance and client trust.

Cloud adoption without DevOps is just a more expensive data center. Most firms know this, even if they don’t say it out loud. Most firms are running workloads in Azure and managing code in GitHub, but many still deploy the way they did on-prem. You still see the same patterns: manual approvals, ticket queues, Friday night deploys that everyone dreads. When something breaks, there’s no rollback plan. When the audit team asks for evidence, no one can produce it. And when a release slips, the client work behind it does too. The truth is, DevOps isn’t about the tool stack. You can use Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions and still be doing everything the old way. DevOps is about how you build trust between development, operations, and compliance. It’s how you prove you can move fast without losing control. In law firms, that pressure is amplified. A bad release isn’t just inconvenient, it’s a risk event. It means confidential data exposure, missed deadlines, angry partners. Cloud adoption without DevOps is just a more expensive data center. The firms that are getting this right have figured out the balance - automated pipelines with clear gates, testing built in, visibility for audit and risk. They’re still cautious, but they’re finally confident. And that’s the difference between “we’re in the cloud” and “we can actually deliver.” [Link to blog in comments]

Law firms are building some impressive things in Copilot Studio right now. But here’s the catch: in most of those rollouts, governance is coming last...if at all. Copilot agents can pull from Outlook, Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive — and without Purview controls in place, they might access more than you intended:  -Client matter data  -Drafts and internal work product  -HR or compensation info  -Privileged communication We wrote up what we’re seeing -  and how firms are using Microsoft Purview to lock Copilot down without slowing anyone down.
