Cybersecurity and Compliance – GDPR

GDPR Principle: Resilient Data Privacy Management

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enforces comprehensive adoption of data security practices, policies, and technologies. GDPR requires companies to comply with a set of norms when collecting and processing personal data, which includes IP addresses and cookie IDs. Despite its UK origins, this regulation impacts most companies worldwide.


Upgrade Your Security for GDPR Compliance

Data Encryption and VPN

GDPR’s Security of Processing Article 32 focuses on necessary measures to promote secure ways to process data based on risk. Encrypting identifiable data and enabling VPNs can stop a security vulnerability from escalating into a data breach, while providing consistent data availability.

MFA increases security in many key areas of your company’s operations. It helps verify that only authorized users have access to systems and applications, and it prevents attackers from leveraging lost or stolen credentials.

Data Protection Means Return on Investment

Data privacy is a priority objective for businesses today. Complying with GDPR also has a positive impact on an organization’s financial health. According to Forrester's Total Economic Impact (TEI) report, businesses that invested in data security experienced a return on investment (ROI) of 152% and recouped investment costs in under 6 months.
