Protect privilege at the point it can be lost.

THE LEGAL BIND

Confidentiality is the product.

Lawyers move documents constantly, across personal devices, home offices, co-counsel, and courts. Every handoff is a chance for privileged material to slip out.

Perimeter tools watch the network, but privileged data can leave through AI tools, personal email, and roaming laptops. The endpoint provides control at the point of data movement, and that is where ADX enforces.

WHERE PRIVILEGED DATA LEAKS

Four everyday moments that put client data at risk.

These transfers can happen beyond the visibility of traditional network and cloud controls. ADX stops them at the endpoint, in real-time.

SHADOW AI

Drafting with a consumer chatbot

An associate pastes a privileged memo into an AI tool to tighten it, exposing client confidences to a third party.

ADX → sees AI-bound privileged data on the device and blocks it before it sends.

EXFILTRATION

Matter files to personal accounts

Someone emails documents to a personal address to work over the weekend.

ADX → blocks unsanctioned transfer of client data at the source.

RANSOMWARE

Extortion of a client roster

Attackers steal matter data first, then threaten to publish the firm’s most sensitive files.

ADX → stops the outbound exfiltration, so there is nothing to leak or extort.

OFF-NETWORK

Work from court and home

A partner works from a laptop far from any firewall, proxy, or CASB.

ADX → runs on-device with no VPN, so protection travels with the lawyer.

DUTY OF CONFIDENCE

A breach of data is a breach of trust

For a firm, losing client data is an ethical failure as much as a security one. ADX prevents privileged material leaving the endpoint and provides evidence of the controls in place.

WHY THE ENDPOINT

Built for how legal work actually happens.

ON-DEVICE

No cloud connectivity required

Prevention happens on the device, so protection holds even off the firm network.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN

Protects privileged data without collecting it

ADX evaluates where data is going without collecting the privileged material it protects.

WORKS ALONGSIDE

Complements your existing security stack

ADX adds the prevention layer alongside the security tools you already run.

OBLIGATIONS

Evidence for confidentiality
and client duties.

ADX turns professional-responsibility duties into controls you can demonstrate to clients, insurers, and regulators.

Client confidentiality

Block privileged data leaving the endpoint across every exfiltration path.

Reasonable safeguards

Technical measures that show the firm took real steps to protect data.

Audit trail

On-device logging of prevented transfers provides defensible evidence.

Data minimization

A minimal-footprint agent that never collects the data it protects.

“A law firm keeps its clients’ secrets. The endpoint is where those secrets are most exposed, and where they need to be protected.”
