Enterprise-Grade Data Security for Legal Technology
At Telescope, protecting your sensitive legal data is central to our mission. We design, build, and operate a Legal Matter Management Platform with industry-leading security practices, robust controls, and a clear roadmap toward internationally recognised standards for enterprise legal technology and legal data security.
Why Security Matters
The legal industry handles highly confidential and commercially sensitive information. We understand that strong data security isn’t optional – it’s a core requirement. Our mission is to give you absolute confidence that your data is protected with best-practice controls, ensuring your trust in Telescope is well-placed.
Our Commitment to Standards
We are actively working towards ISO 27001 and SOC 2 accreditations, two of the most respected standards in information security. While final certification is pending, Telescope has already implemented the foundational controls, documentation, and operational practices required to meet both frameworks. We are progressing through formal audit readiness and external assessment phases and will provide updates in due course.
Information Security Management System
The international benchmark for an Information Security Management System (ISMS), demonstrating a systematic, risk-based approach to managing information security across people, processes, and technology.
Security, Availability & Confidentiality
Focuses on security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy, reflecting rigorous third-party auditing of our controls and processes over time.
Multi-Layered Security Programa
Our Legal Matter Management Platform operates under a comprehensive security program that includes multiple layers of protection:
Technical Safeguards
- Encryption: Data is protected both in transit and at rest, safeguarding it as it moves through our systems and when stored.
- Secure Authentication & Access Control: Role-based access, strong password policies, and multi-factor authentication minimize unauthorized access.
- Segregation of Environments: Development, test, and production environments are logically separated to reduce risk.
- Audit Logging & Monitoring: Detailed logs and continuous monitoring help detect and respond to unusual activity.
Operational Controls
- Documented Policies & Procedures: We maintain extensive internal security policies covering access control, incident response, change management, and more.
- Secure Development Practices: Security is embedded throughout our software lifecycle, including code reviews, dependency scanning, and secure coding standards.
- Employee Training & Awareness: All team members receive continuous security education relevant to their roles.
Governance & Risk Management
- Risk Assessments Ongoing evaluation of threats and vulnerabilities to proactively manage risks.
- Periodic Internal Reviews: Regular reviews of policies and controls as part of our readiness for formal ISO and SOC 2 audit processes.
Transparency and Trust
As part of our compliance journey, we make security documentation available to clients and prospective customers under controlled access (e.g., security questionnaires, whitepapers, and audit summaries under NDA). We also provide support for customer-led security reviews and assessments.
