Clear from the discussion was the never-ending challenge of fragmentation, driven by the rapid and constant evolution of Legal Tech. The complexity of defence is exacerbated by this and by the rise of the “citizen developer,” where technology
is being put in the hands of those who prioritise business continuity and task
optimisation over security.

Also unearthed, was the level of friction across the legal supply chain when it comes
to security and defence capabilities, as well as the difficulties of protecting a sector that operates 24/7. This tension is felt between small and large firms, and between
firms and their clients, and suppliers.

This report covers:

• The rise of the citizen developer in the legal sector
• Friction in the legal supply chain
• Protection outside 9-5
