Cloud computing is one of the hottest trends in legal technology. Rather than installing and running software on your local computer, your software and data is hosted by a third party and made available over the Internet. While this new approach to cloud computing offers many benefits, lawyers in particular need to be away of security-and privacy-related “best practices” prior to entrusting confidential client data to “the cloud.” The presentation will answer the following questions:

• What is cloud computing / Software-as-a-Service?
• What does cloud computing mean for lawyers?
• What are some of the benefits (and some of the disadvantages) of “the cloud”?
• What are the ethical implications of using Software-as-a-Service? Is it OK with my Bar?
• What questions about security and privacy should you be asking a prospective SaaS provider?
• How should you evaluate the costs of SaaS versus traditional desktop software?
• How can you protect yourself against worst-case scenarios?

Newton will also review the ethics issues relevant to cloud computing and provide a survey of recent ethics opinions related to cloud computing.
