Data Protection
Encrypt sensitive data both at rest and in transit. Establish data loss prevention (DLP) mechanisms to prevent unauthorized data exfiltration.
Security Testing and Assessment
Conduct regular security assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning to identify weaknesses and remediate them before they can be exploited.
Backup and Recovery
Maintain regular backups of critical data and systems to facilitate recovery in case of ransomware attacks, data corruption, or other disasters.
Regulatory Compliance
Stay informed about relevant regulations and standards (e.g., GDPR, NIST, ISO 27001) and ensure compliance with industry-specific requirements.
Executive Oversight and Governance
Establish clear cybersecurity policies, allocate adequate resources, and provide executive oversight to ensure that cybersecurity measures are effectively implemented and maintained.
