For Professional Services across the UK and Europe

See ORCA Opti for UK & European Professional Services

Solicitors and notaries, accountants, consultants and advisory firms across the UK and Europe hold the most sensitive client data in any economy. SRA, ICAEW, ICAS, EU regulators, UK and EU GDPR, NIS2 supply-chain expectations and the EU AI Act on legal AI are all reshaping client procurement. ORCA Opti gives partners the assurance — and the marketing leverage — to win bigger work.

Client confidentiality in the Safe Zone

Client matter files, working papers and engagement records inside the Safe Zone, with AI Guardian blocking accidental disclosure to external AI.

Corporate client security reviews answered

Pan-European corporates run firms through the same vendor reviews as software vendors. ORCA Opti handles the ISO 27001 and SOC 2 evidence behind every answer.

SRA, ICAEW and EU regulator aligned

Solicitors Regulation Authority, ICAEW, ICAS, Bar Council and EU professional-body confidentiality expectations assembled in one programme.

Governed AI for legal, audit and advisory

Roll out AI for drafting, research, audit and advisory work with the audit trail clients, the EU AI Act and your insurer expect.

The pressure

What Pan-European managing partners face

Client procurement gating, AI in every workflow and a ransomware wave targeting law and accounting firms specifically.

Professional-services ransomware

Law firms and accountancy practices are now among the most-attacked verticals in the UK and EU, with high-value matter data and traditional security underinvestment combining as the magnet.

Corporate client security questionnaires

Pan-European corporates run firms through SIG, CAIQ and bespoke questionnaires before opening matters. No evidence ready, no engagement.

AI tools and privileged matter

Solicitors pasting privileged matter into ChatGPT is a documented disclosure path. AI Guardian inspects every prompt before it leaves the tenancy.

NIS2 supply-chain cascade

Firms serving NIS2-essential and important entities now face supplier cyber clauses with evidence required at renewal, not just onboarding.

Frameworks built in

Professional, regulator and Pan-European procurement standards

ORCA Opti ships with the obligations UK and European professional services run on. Controls pre-mapped, evidence structured and reporting current.

SOC 2 Type 2

Service Organisation Controls Type 2 across all five trust service criteria, with evidence collection automated for partner attestation.

SRA, ICAEW & EU professional bodies

Solicitors Regulation Authority, ICAEW, ICAS and EU professional-body confidentiality and information-security expectations mapped to controls.

UK GDPR & EU GDPR

Client and matter data, transfer mechanisms and breach notification mapped to a single model across UK and EEA.

ISO 27001 & ISO 9001

Information security and quality management foundations, the procurement passport for Pan-European clients.

Cyber Essentials Plus & NIS2

UK Cyber Essentials Plus baseline plus NIS2 supplier expectations mapped to controls and evidence.

EU AI Act & legal-AI guidance

EU AI Act high-risk classification, transparency duties and SRA/Bar Council guidance applied to legal, audit and advisory workflows.
