Cloud computing could be used after law firms urged to turn to electronic working

Law firms could consider introducing cloud computing after The Law Society said that the industry should start embracing electronic working.

Similarly, the Crown Prosecution Services is calling for more use of secure email to help improve the efficiency of the justice system, reports the Law Society Gazette.

This could see evidence and prosecution papers distributed through the medium and eventually see a decline in the number of court hearings that need to take place.

Keir Starmer QC, director of public prosecutions, told the news provider that the majority of professions have moved forward with the growing use of technology.

"All professionals work electronically and securely on personal issues at home, whether it is booking a holiday or paying their road tax," he said.

"The CPS is moving towards the widespread use of digital prosecution case files by 2012, and I am delighted the Law Society, a key CPS partner in the criminal justice system, is supporting the use of secure electronic working by its members."

It comes after the International Data Corporation predicted that public IT cloud computing revenues are set to rise by 2014.
