AITech Interview with Robert Scott, Chief Innovator at Monjur

Greetings Robert, Could you please share with us your professional journey and how you came to your current role as Chief Innovator of Monjur?

Thank you for having me. My professional journey has been a combination of law and technology. I started my career as an intellectual property attorney, primarily dealing with software licensing and IT transactions and disputes.  During this time, I noticed inefficiencies in the way we managed legal processes, particularly in customer contracting solutions. This sparked my interest in legal tech. I pursued further studies in AI and machine learning, and eventually transitioned into roles that allowed me to blend my legal expertise with technological innovation. We founded Monjur to redefine legal services.  I am responsible for overseeing our innovation strategy, and today, as Chief Innovator, I work on developing and implementing cutting-edge AI solutions that enhance our legal services.

How has Monjur adopted AI for streamlined case research and analysis, and what impact has it had on your operations?

Monjur has implemented AI in various facets of our legal operations. For case research and analysis, we’ve integrated natural language processing (NLP) models that rapidly sift through vast legal databases to identify relevant case law, statutes, and legal precedents. This has significantly reduced the time our legal professionals spend on research while ensuring that they receive comprehensive and accurate information. The impact has been tremendous, allowing us to provide quicker and more informed legal opinions to our clients. Moreover, AI has improved the accuracy of our legal analyses by flagging critical nuances and trends that might otherwise be overlooked.

Integrating technology for secure document management and transactions is crucial in today’s digital landscape. Can you elaborate on Monjur’s approach to this and any challenges you’ve encountered?

At Monjur, we prioritize secure document management and transactions by leveraging encrypted cloud platforms. Our document management system utilizes multi-factor authentication and end-to-end encryption to protect client data. However, implementing these technologies hasn’t been without challenges. Ensuring compliance with varying data privacy regulations across jurisdictions required us to customize our systems extensively. Additionally, onboarding clients to these new systems involved change management and extensive training to address their concerns regarding security and usability.

Safeguarding ASEAN’s Digital Future: Proactive Cloud Incident Response Strategies

The acceleration in the adoption of cloud technology has revolutionised the business landscape, and in doing so, significantly altered the cybersecurity ecosystem. The vast potential of cloud technology, such as its scalability, adaptability, and cost-effectiveness, has not gone unnoticed by nefarious entities seeking opportunities for exploitation. As businesses across ASEAN continue their transition to the cloud, they are increasingly confronted with escalating incidents of data breaches, ransomware attacks, and insider threats.

Therefore, it’s vital for organisations to devise and implement a robust cloud-specific incident response plan. Such a plan can help minimise the impact of security incidents, accelerate recovery time, and ensure optimal data protection in this rapidly evolving digital space.

Cloud Incident Response (IR) today needs to grapple with a radically different set of challenges, including data volume, accessibility, and the speed at which threats can multiply within cloud architectures. The interplay of various components, such as virtualization, storage, workloads, and cloud management software, intensifies the complexity of securing cloud environments.

That being said, Cloud IR cannot be done in isolation of the company’s overall incident response activities and business continuity plans. When possible, cloud security tools should use the same SOC, SOAR, and communication tools currently being used to secure other company elements. Using the same infrastructure ensures that suspicious and threatening cloud activities receive an immediate and appropriate response.

Creating an effective response plan involves understanding and managing the unique cloud platforms, being fully aware of data storage and access, and adeptly handling the dynamic nature of the cloud. Specifically:

Managing the Cloud Platform: The administrative console, the control centre of each cloud platform, facilitates the creation of new identities, service deployment, updates, and configurations impacting all cloud-hosted assets. This becomes an attractive target for threat actors, considering it offers direct access to the cloud infrastructure and user identities.

Understanding Data in the Cloud: The cloud hosts data, apps, and components on external servers, making it crucial to maintain correct configurations and timely updates. This is vital not just to prevent external threats, but also to manage internal vulnerabilities, such as misconfigurations, given the inherent complexity and size of cloud networks.

In conclusion, as businesses in the ASEAN region increasingly embrace cloud technologies, the need for a well-defined cloud IR plan has never been more crucial. By efficiently identifying signs of cloud-based threats, mitigating breaches, and limiting or eliminating damage, organisations can secure their cloud infrastructures, enhance their response processes, and reduce time to resolution.
