Law firms continue to be vulnerable to state-sponsored incursions from China, Russia and Iran, as demonstrated by a recent report detailing an alleged Chinese hack into the systems of a U.S. firm known for its expertise in intellectual property.

The other victims were an international apparel company and a Norwegian cloud services provider.
