Signal Consulting accelerates and deploys modern IT infrastructure and security for law firms

Signal Consulting, the “innovation deployment firm that serves as CIO and CISO for forward-thinking law firms,” today is launching Foundations FastTrack, a program that modernizes a law firm's infrastructure and security.

"Infrastructure and security are the easy part of law firm technology, yet many firms still sink their time and budget there while the real opportunity sits in AI," said Matt Bares, founder and CEO of Signal Consulting. "FastTrack settles the foundation at a predictable price, so mid-sized firms can turn their people toward AI and compete with firms many times their size."

According to the company, Foundations FastTrack gives firms a modern, secure foundation built on the infrastructure and security stack Signal has deployed and operated at firm after firm. Signal completes the full modernization in weeks, with compliance available as an add-on.

With Foundations FastTrack, firms invest one per-user monthly amount over a 36-month term, with pre-negotiated rates from leading technology providers built in and own every piece of equipment when the term ends. With a stable, scalable foundation in place, a small team can manage and secure the environment, and firms can redeploy IT talent to work alongside attorneys on AI and business process improvement, the company said.

Foundations FastTrack features and capabilities include:

• Network and connectivity. Every office stays connected, with fiber internet and a backup line, Fortinet firewalls, and Meraki switching and wireless.
• Managed security. Arctic Wolf monitors the firm 24/7, backed by vulnerability management, endpoint protection and security awareness training.
• Cloud and collaboration. Lawyers work securely from anywhere on Microsoft 365, Teams and Intune, with files moved to the cloud and backups tested to restore.
• End-user devices. Every user gets a business-class laptop, encrypted and managed from day one, with warranty and spares.
• Ongoing management. Signal runs the environment after go-live and reports to leadership monthly, so the firm's IT team gets time back for AI and process work.
• Compliance add-on. Policies, an evidence calendar and a risk register keep the firm ready for client security questionnaires and audits.
• Predictable pricing. One per-user monthly investment, with the schedule in hand before the firm signs.
• Ownership. After 36 months, the firm owns its laptops and network equipment, and the monthly investment drops.

Foundations FastTrack is available now.
