In today’s digital world, no matter what type of sensitive data you handle, attackers are hard at work developing ways to access it. The rash of high-profile security breaches making headlines every day is clear evidence of the struggle businesses face in trying to stay ahead of these sophisticated cyber attacks.
In response to these threats, local and federal governments around the world have begun to impose increasingly stringent regulations to force companies to re-examine their internal cybersecurity standards.
DFARS clause 252.204-7012, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR are just some of the many compliance mandates that companies are currently juggling. And considering the disastrous fallout of even the smallest breach, not to mention the heavy penalties associated with non-compliance, there’s no time to waste in getting up to date.
The Risks of Non-compliance
As early as 2005, former U.S. President Barack Obama voiced his concern about cyberattacks, calling them a “national emergency.” In the years following this call to action, Federal agencies continually increased the regulatory mandates for private contractors, and over half of the state governments in the U.S. passed laws to put in place punitive measures for companies that fail to sufficiently protect sensitive data.
These include hefty fines and in some cases, jail time. Of course, these punishments are minuscule when compared to the consequences of actually being hacked. The costs of penalties, legal fees, and possible compensation for damages pile up quickly and can completely change the financial outlook of your company. Most damaging, however, is the subsequent destruction of your company’s reputation and the irreparable loss of confidence from your customer base.
Entities with the proper vision and intelligence work exceptionally hard to avoid these outcomes at all cost by prioritizing day-to-day operational security. Not only does this protect the company as a whole, but it ensures that the satisfaction of government or contractual requirements is a natural outcome of day-to-day security practices.

The unfortunate truth is that, even though compliance is absolutely essential, it’s not easy. Combing through the myriad of regulatory requirements to assess which apply to your business, coupled with the complex processes of then actually meeting these standards, leaves many companies lost.
