Third party practice tools can be helpful for increasing efficiency in an IP firm, but they may also potentially present a security and data privacy risk. In this presentation, a panel of experienced industry veterans will discuss best practices for maintaining data security while utilizing third party tools. Our speakers will provide an overview of basic privacy law and data security. They will share standards that should drive choices, and practical ideas to quickly evaluate vendors. They will discuss what a typical corporate IP department requires from a law firm candidate—and, in turn, what an IP firm needs from suppliers. Attendees will come away knowing:

1. How an IP law firm can best choose cloud-based tools
2. Some background regarding security and compliance goals
3. Several third-party tools our firm utilizes, and the research we conduct on these tools
