International Data Security Laws & Regulations

International data protection regulations, led by the EU GDPR, have global reach that affects any organization processing data of their residents, regardless of where the organization is headquartered.Our experience has proven that when it comes to information security policies, a standard is a standard for a reason. With that in mind, our Cybersecurity & Data Protection Program (CDPP) is based on industry-recognized best practices and information security standards so that you can meet your legal requirements. Unlike some competitor sites that offer “Bronze, Silver or Gold” packages that may leave you critically exposed, we offer a comprehensive information security solution to meet your specific compliance requirements. Why is this? It is simple - in the real world, compliance is penalty-centric. The court systems have established a track record of punishing businesses for failing to perform “reasonably expected” steps to meet compliance with known standards. In addition to the courts, insurance companies penalize companies for non-compliance by refusing policy coverage due to professional negligence exclusions. In terms of Information Security compliance, what you do not know has the proven ability to hurt you!
