MS Flaws
First up you need to be aware of a flaw in SharePoint that can be exploited. "Fake emails targeting Office 365 users via malicious links inserted into SharePoint documents are the latest trick phishers employ to bypass the platform's built-in security, Avanan researchers warn." Secondly, you need to be aware of a pretty big flaw in Microsoft's Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS). The short version is any multi-factor authentication key can be used with a legitimate user ID and password combination. Read more at:

Reshaping the legal services 'buy'
I highlighted the Ernst & Young (EY) buying Riverview story and questioned the use of the word 'disruption'. Mark Cohen comes along today with his own take on the purchase. Mark says "EY is upping its 'legal' delivery profile and helping to reshape buyer notions of what and from whom it means to buy 'legal services.'" Mark also notes that "KMPG, PwC, and EY have all made strategic acquisitions of law firms whose practice areas complement their existing service offerings." and shares a chart of EY's multidisciplinary operating model. There is a lot to think about in that chart alone. Read more at Legal Mosaic: EY Acquires Riverview Law: A Different Perspective

Future Conferences
On the eve of ILTACON, the 41st Annual Educational Conference of the International Legal Technology Association, Stephen Embry ponders the future of big legal conferences. He notes that "All of these conferences are spectacles, expensive to put on, expensive to attend, and expensive to travel to." He adds "In many instances, the bang for the buck can certainly be questioned, especially when there may be other alternatives for the same content at less cost." He proposes some virtualization of the big conference experience and shares his experience doing that. What does the future hold for ALA, ILTA, ABA, LegalWeek and AALL conferences?
