Biscom Adds Am Law 200 Law Firms to its Growing List of Clients

Nov. 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Chelmsford, MA – Biscom, the legal industry’s leading provider of secure and managed file transfer, announced today that an increasing number of Am Law 200 law firms are selecting their technology to protect the exchange of confidential client documents and improve collaboration with clients, outside counsel, and business partners. These new clients include Arnstein & Lehr, Duane Morris, McKenna Long & Aldridge, Outten & Golden, Riemer Braunstein, Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice and Zuckerman Spaeder.

Law firms and corporate legal departments are under increasing pressure to comply with the growing number of federal and state regulatory mandates to protect confidential client information and personally identifiable data. Adding to this burden are the cost, complexity, and risk of data breaches associated with exchanging documents using traditional file transfer methods, including FTP, e-mail, and courier services.

“We have replaced FTP with Biscom for file transfer to external parties. As a result, our legal teams can now more efficiently manage large file transfers with minimal IT support, while having the confidence that their files are being transferred with more control and security,” said Bob Lamy, CIO, McKenna, Long & Aldridge. “We have experienced a 50 percent reduction in IT time spent supporting large file transfer and improved attorney productivity.”

Sean Scott, CIO, Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice, stated, “We used to burn multi-gigabyte deposition videos to DVD and send via overnight delivery. With Biscom, these large files are now securely transferred quickly, and we receive immediate verification of receipt. As a result we have achieved considerable savings in time, eliminated potential data breaches, and significantly reduced delivery costs.”

Biscom Delivery Server (BDS) is an enterprise secure-file transfer application that allows users to send and receive large files, easily and securely, through a simple Web interface. All transfers are encrypted and all transactions are logged for auditing and reporting purposes. BDS also includes an Outlook add-in that allows Outlook users to send files directly through BDS from their e-mail client without impacting the mail server.

“Biscom is committed to providing advanced secure file transfer technology that is tailored to meet the unique document exchange and collaboration needs of the legal industry,” comments Charlie Magliato, Biscom’s Legal Practice Manager. “We work closely with our legal clients to include in our product roadmap features that will increase attorney and staff productivity as well as support the complex file transfer requirements of litigation and practice support groups. Our latest release includes integration with Autonomy iManage, improved verification of receipt, and new Outlook integration features to support message archiving and facilitate recipient notification of a secure delivery.”

BDS has both an on-premise and cloud offering to meet companies’ diverse deployment requirements. For more information on BDS, please visit www.biscomdeliveryserver.com or contact a sales representative at 1-800-477-2472.
