The Team

Law Firm specializing in real estate closings and works with banks and other law firms, handling sensitive attorney-client privileged information.

The Challenge

State Bar cybersecurity requirements and attorney-client privilege protections created urgent need for comprehensive security awareness. They needed:

  • Cultural change beyond “check-the-box” training programs
  • Employee engagement to become cyber defenders
  • An effective solution for high-stakes legal environment

The Solution

The firm integrated monthly NINJIO micro-learning videos into continuing education with leadership support and competitive elements.

  • Monthly episodes with relevant threat info and takeaways
  • Competition element with gift cards for 24-hour completion
  • Leadership expectation for all employees and partners to participate

“At first, some of the employees were skeptical about NINJIO due to past experiences with boring, check-the-box training programs. Within two years of engaging with NINJIO the team ‘looks forward to each new episode (and supplemental training materials) every month.”’
