Law firms handle extremely sensitive data: legal documents, contracts, client details, criminal and civil case files, recordings, legal opinions, and more.
Even the slightest data breach can cause serious damage to both the firm and the client—and may even result in legal exposure.
But how can firms balance modern work convenience (remote access, automatic backups, easy workflows) with strict security standards?
That’s exactly what this guide is here to answer.
Why Move to a Cloud Server?
Today’s lawyers work from everywhere—offices, homes, courts, and while traveling.
Relying on a local physical server limits access, creates dependency on technicians, and doesn’t always provide the necessary security.
A cloud server enables secure work from anywhere—without compromising privacy, control, or ease of use.
Common (and Valid) Concerns Law Firms Raise:
What if there's a breach or leak of sensitive legal data?
Is my data stored outside of Israel?
If an employee leaves—can they still access files?
Can accidentally deleted data be recovered?
How can I make sure only the responsible lawyer accesses each case?
The good news: all of these concerns can be addressed—and quite easily.
How to Ensure High-Level Security on a Cloud Server
1. Server Location in Israel
With OMC.Cloud, you can host your server physically in Israel, making it easier to meet local legal and regulatory requirements.
2. RDP Access with Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Each employee gets a personal user with a strong password.
To log in, a one-time code (OTP) is required, sent to their phone.
Even if the password is leaked, access is still blocked.
3. Role-Based Access Control
Set permissions so each lawyer sees only their own cases. Interns see only what's relevant to their work, and managers access what’s needed for oversight.
Access is managed via Active Directory or folder-based permissions by user.
4. Daily Backups & Fast Recovery
All files are backed up daily to a secondary server.
Restore old versions in minutes.
If something gets deleted—it's not gone for good.
5. Data Encryption & Secure File Transfer
All data can be encrypted on disk, and file transfers are done only via secure channels (SSL, SFTP, VPN).
6. Monitoring & Anomaly Detection
The system detects suspicious logins, intrusion attempts, or access from unknown locations—and sends real-time alerts.
How It Works in Practice
We’ll set up a Windows cloud server for your firm via OMC.Cloud, install all your existing tools (case management, billing software, Office, etc.), and create individual users for your team.
Within one business day, your entire office operates securely from the cloud—with no need for an on-site server.
Desktop at home, office laptop, or tablet—all devices can connect easily and safely.
Summary
A cloud server for your law firm is not only convenient—it’s more secure, better controlled, and more cost-effective in the long run.
Especially when dealing with highly sensitive data—security is non-negotiable.
With OMC.Cloud, you maintain client confidentiality and gain full control over your data—anytime, anywhere.
