By now we all have heard from ExamSoft that the Michigan bar exam’s “technical glitch” was really a “sophisticated” cyberattack. It’s the sort of news that doesn’t fill one with confidence as more states move bar exams online.

How Innovative Legal Teams Are Turning AI From Promise To Practice
In recent years, AI has moved beyond speculation in the legal industry. What used to be hypothetical is now very real.

It’s hard not to have a little sympathy for the poor ExamSoft marketer. A lot has changed in 12 years and it’s only logical as the vendor got tapped by states to run online bar exams that it would want its web footprint to focus on today’s product and not something from over a decade ago. The problem is the issues highlighted back then are apparently still real risks.
