As a user searching for a solution for your law firm, you have to be cautious of vendors simply trying to get your buy-in by misrepresenting their solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article will explain what cloud washing is. We will also explain how you can evaluate your legal software to ensure you get exactly what you require and expect from it.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-cloud-washing\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is Cloud Washing?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud washing is when brands intentionally, and often deceptively, link the cloud to their product or service. It usually happens with older software solutions. Companies will make them seem more up-to-date and tech-forward by marketing them as cloud-based. However, the software usually isn\u2019t actually fully cloud-based and may still require hardware and manual upgrades.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some vendors may also use the term \u2018cloud\u2019 to describe the movement of physical, on-site software and hardware to virtual, centralized spaces. There is a difference, however, between virtualization and true cloud computing software.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fully cloud-based software is designed and built for cloud computing and function in the cloud.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-cloud-based-legal-software-helps-firms-comply-with-gdpr\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Cloud-Based Legal Software Helps Firms Comply With GDPR<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is especially vital for law firms to be wary of cloud washing and their selection of legal software. The <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/gdpr-info.eu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> emphasizes law firms\u2019 and lawyers\u2019 responsibility to safeguard client information.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Legal-Software-Helps-Firms-Comply-With-GDPR_blog-image.png\" alt=\"Legal Software Helps Firms Comply With GDPR_blog image\" class=\"wp-image-14496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Legal-Software-Helps-Firms-Comply-With-GDPR_blog-image.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Legal-Software-Helps-Firms-Comply-With-GDPR_blog-image-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Legal-Software-Helps-Firms-Comply-With-GDPR_blog-image-768x480.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using a genuine cloud-based solution helps your <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/blog\/company-news\/gdpr-at-law-firm-with-case-management-software\/\">law firm remain compliant<\/a><\/span> with this regulation in the following ways:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-external-support\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">External Support<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authentic and entirely cloud-based software vendors will acknowledge their role in your firm\u2019s GDPR compliance. This means that their solution will include relevant features that support your ability to comply.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with solution providers that aren&#8217;t cloud-washed will reduce the pressure on your firm to comply with the GDPR. Your provider will give you the assistance and expertise to handle all your data safely and efficiently.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-protects-client-data\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protects Client Data<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud-based solutions retain your data in several off-site locations. This means your data remains safe in the event of a destructive incident at your premises. For example, you can rest assured that you won&#8217;t lose your data in the event of a fire or natural disaster.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The GDPR requires law firms to have fully backed-up systems that support data recovery if necessary. A good, completely cloud-based system should offer safe data backups and protection.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-constant-security-updates-scalability\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Constant Security Updates &amp; Scalability<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GDPR also requires firms to encrypt data where necessary and to maintain security standards. Your firm has to implement policies to evaluate and constantly improve and update <\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/blog\/uncategorized-de\/law-firm-information-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">data security<\/span><\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This compliance requirement can be challenging for firms to implement with physical on-premise software. Cloud-washed or server systems can also present a challenge when it comes to updating.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, cloud-based systems provide automatic updates and support your business\u2019 scaling. Your firm need not worry about scheduling updates, and you can confidently expand your firm, knowing your system will develop and change with your new numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-check-that-your-law-firm-software-is-fully-cloud-based\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Check That Your Law Firm Software Is Fully Cloud-Based<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Check-That-Your-Law-Firm-Software-Is-Fully-Cloud-Based_blog-image.png\" alt=\"Check That Your Law Firm Software Is Fully Cloud Based_blog image\" class=\"wp-image-14503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Check-That-Your-Law-Firm-Software-Is-Fully-Cloud-Based_blog-image.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Check-That-Your-Law-Firm-Software-Is-Fully-Cloud-Based_blog-image-300x188.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amberlo.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Check-That-Your-Law-Firm-Software-Is-Fully-Cloud-Based_blog-image-768x480.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to ensure that your software choice is what it seems (cloud-based, that is), you can use the following checklist:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-evaluate-the-security\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evaluate The Security<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ask yourself these security questions when analyzing possible solutions:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where does the provider store your data\/servers?
