Confidencial Launches Legal-Grade Data Protection Platform Ahead of ILTACON 2025

Purpose-Built to Protect Privilege, Streamline Compliance, and Enable AI-Era Security

Palo Alto, CA – August 6, 2025 — Confidencial.io, the cybersecurity company redefining data security and governance for the AI era, today announced the launch of its newest solution: the first platform purpose-built to protect law firms’ most sensitive information - because law firms don’t get second chances when privilege is breached.


Am Law 50 firms are already using Confidencial to solve what most still overlook: how easily client data moves - and how little control firms have once it does. Timed with ILTACON 2025, the launch tackles the risk head-on. From fragmented document management systems to AI experimentation, privileged information is being copied, shared, and pulled into tools with no native enforcement.


“You redline contracts. We redline access,” said Karim Eldefrawy, Co-Founder and CTO at Confidencial. “Privilege breaks the moment sensitive data leaves your hands or your device. And sometimes, it doesn’t even have to leave. As we saw with the recent SharePoint breach, even data stored inside trusted systems isn’t as safe as some people assume. Legal teams need protection that stays with the data inside SharePoint, outside the firewall, across AI tools…wherever it goes. Document management alone won’t cut it anymore.”

Designed for the way legal teams actually work, Confidencial brings airtight, field-level security to client files, privileged correspondence, and regulatory documents.


Why It Matters

  • 56% of law firms that experienced a breach last year lost sensitive client information

  • The average breach cost in legal hit $5.08M in 2024

  • AI adoption in law nearly tripled, from 11% to 30%, introducing new risks for uncontrolled data exposure

  • Shared ChatGPT conversations can now appear in Google search results, raising new concerns about inadvertent exposure of privileged or sensitive content


Built for Legal’s Reality

Legal teams handle some of the world’s most sensitive data, yet many lack the ability to enforce granular access controls, revoke access, or audit document usage once content is shared or copied across systems.


Confidencial’s new legal platform addresses this by: 

  • Precision Encryption: Encrypts exactly what needs protection while keeping documents editable and usable.

  • Automated Protection: Scans cloud and on-prem storage to identify and protect sensitive unstructured data, across Office files, PDFs, images, and more, using built-in or existing classifiers.

  • AI Guardrails: Prevents sensitive data from leaking into ChatGPT, Harvey, CoCounsel, Copilot, or being exposed in RAG pipelines, fine-tuning, and long-context prompts, using selective encryption and access controls before data enters AI workflows.

  • Audit-Ready Control & Compliance: Delivers detailed logs and policy enforcement aligned with HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 42001, and client security reviews.


Legal teams are under pressure to modernize and innovate—but without sacrificing privilege or protection. Confidencial’s solution bridges that gap.
