Texas law firms continue to face pressure to show that cybersecurity controls are not only written down, but actually operating.

For SB 2610 readiness, documentation should connect policies to evidence. A policy says what the firm expects. Evidence shows the firm followed through.

Practical evidence to keep current

Firms should maintain dated records for:

  • Multi-factor authentication coverage
  • Backup and restoration tests
  • Endpoint protection status
  • Vendor reviews and contracts
  • Security awareness training
  • Access reviews and offboarding records

If your firm has added a new system, vendor, office, or major workflow, treat that as a trigger to review your cybersecurity documentation.
