The SIRI Difference
What a standard firm does.
What SIRI does.
Every cyber law firm claims to handle digital matters. Only SIRI has lawyers and certified security engineers working the same case file.
Standard Law Firm — Legal Only
✗Files FIR and appears in court
Cannot assess whether the digital evidence is technically valid
✗Advises on DPDPA in the abstract
Cannot audit your actual data flows or technical compliance gaps
✗Reviews contracts for legal risk
Misses the security architecture implications hidden in vendor agreements
✗Engages forensic vendors separately
Chain-of-custody breaks. Evidence may not hold up in court
✗Advises post-breach
Typically engaged after regulatory window (6 hours) has already closed
✗Refers AI questions out
Most firms have no AI governance capability at all
