Client obligations
Client security questionnaires and audits now routinely ask for tested backup and recovery capabilities, and SOC 2 reports get read closely.
Recoverability for Professional Services Firms
A professional services firm has no factory and no inventory. The business is people working in systems, which means an attack that takes down email, file shares, and practice management idles the entire fee-earning staff at once. Fenix24 restores firms to billable operation and helps them prove to clients that their data, and their deadlines, can survive an attack.
What an attack does to a professional services firm
The direct cost is straightforward and brutal, hundreds or thousands of professionals unable to work while overhead runs. The deeper cost is custodial. Firms hold client financials, deal information, tax records, and audit workpapers, and modern attackers steal that data before encrypting it. Client engagements come with security obligations, and a breach puts every one of them in play at once, during the same weeks the firm is trying to restore the systems the work runs on.
Clients and regulators demand proof of recoverability
Your firm sells expertise by the hour. Ransomware stops the clock for everyone.
Regulatory requirements
Firms in scope for regulatory frameworks, from SEC requirements for registered advisors to state privacy laws, carry breach and continuity obligations of their own. A firm that can show a tested recovery of its core systems has an answer for the RFP question that eliminates competitors who cannot.
