Data Security & Compliance Solutions

Cyber attacks are on the rise across the country, and it’s expected to only get worse over the next few years. The cost of cyber crimes reached $2.7 billion in 2020 alone, according to the FBI’s Internet Crime Report.

With many industries needing different levels of security and compliance, it is becoming increasingly important to protect organizational data against common cyber attacks including malware, viruses, ransomware, and phishing. The healthcare and technology industries need the most secure systems in place due to the issues of strict data compliance each has to meet.

Data security includes mitigating the risk of cyber threats and potential fines if data leaks out. It is critical to choose the right cyber security and compliance solutions to ensure private information and sensitive data are kept safe. One of the ways companies ensure security is multi-factor authentication from everything including a text message with a code to a password or fingerprints.
