Frayman Group: Salans Selects Frayman Group for Information Barriers

Frayman Group, a leading provider of new business intake, risk and compliance software for law firms, today announced that international law firm Salans has chosen Compliguard Protect, the leading legal information barriers solution based on Microsoft’s .NET platform. Salans will use Compliguard Protect to meet the increasing requirements for a centralized client and matter security mechanism as part of a comprehensive approach to information privacy and security across multiple systems and international borders.

“We are delighted that Salans is joining the growing list of European Compliguard Protect customers”

Founded in 1978, Salans is a diverse but highly integrated firm, with over 750 lawyers operating across 17 jurisdictions. Its 22 offices are located in the world’s main commercial centers and also in developing economies, in many of which the firm pioneered international legal work.

“Frayman Group have for some time provided specialized business intake workflow and conflicts management services to our firm and we chose them again at this time because of their proven ability to understand our risk management needs and deliver working solutions,” said Jeffrey Elton, Head of Risk at Salans. “The Frayman Group’s Compliguard Protect information barriers solution provides our firm with a powerful but easy-to-use capability to meet the increasing demand for centralized client and matter information protection. This capability will allow our risk team to speedily create information barriers, ensuring that all key systems in the firm operate under a central privacy directive for a particular client and matter.”

Compliguard Protect is a next generation information barriers application designed from the ground up to help law firms deal with increasing demand from clients to demonstrate and ensure that their information can be ring-fenced with total security across all of the systems in use by the firm, limiting access to authorized personnel only. In addition, the system monitors information access and highlights unusual levels of activity to partners and compliance officers. The system, built on the latest .NET technology from Microsoft, can be run independently or integrated into a business intake workflow solution such as Frayman’s Compliguard Flow2.

“We are delighted that Salans is joining the growing list of European Compliguard Protect customers,” said Bryan Roberts, Managing Director of Frayman Group UK. “Frayman Group’s purpose-built business intake, risk and compliance applications continue to assist law firms to become highly competitive, attractive to clients and compliant with regulations and privacy requirements.”

Frayman Group is hosting a roundtable discussion entitled Risk Management and the ‘New Engine Room’ of the Law Firm at the Legal Week Strategic Technology Forum this week where attendees will explore the benefits of modernizing and automating the new business intake process, conflicts resolution and data confidentiality.

Compliguard Protect is part of Frayman Group’s end-to-end risk management platform, which includes:

• Compliguard Flow2 – legal industry’s fastest design-to-production new business workflow application
• Compliguard Analyze – second generation conflicts management application designed to deliver smart automation, mobility and accountability to the mission-critical conflicts management process
• Compliguard Protect – information governance, confidentiality management and unusual activity monitoring application

The Compliguard platform is built on the latest Microsoft technology, requiring nothing but a web browser on the client desktop to operate.
