Firm in difficult situation on updating public, rivals say

Legal experts have stated that law firm Allen & Overy finds itself in a difficult position following a cyberattack. The firm must balance the need for transparency with the risk of releasing information prematurely. These investigations can be complex, taking months to resolve. On the other hand, paying a ransom can cause reputational damage. LockBit, the suspected attacker, has previously targeted DP World and Boeing.
