Legal Risk Intelligence
Legal risk intelligence involves monitoring for regulatory changes, enforcement actions, lawsuits, sanctions violations, and compliance failures that could impact an organization. Legal threats generate signals across government publications, court filings, regulatory announcements, and news sources — and increasingly surface first on social media and investigative journalism channels.
