Your company president with assistance from the head of operations just finished a confidential proposal to acquire a business based in California that will more than double your market share and revenue. Should you also send a copy of the proposal to your top three competitors?

Of course not. But that could be exactly what you are doing if you don’t properly dispose of the data or data storage device used in drafting your proposal. A Data Destruction Policy is a prerequisite for limiting your exposure to common and potentially devastating risks to your business, including:

  • Reputation loss
  • Loss of intellectual property, sensitive employee or customer data
  • Regulatory fines and penalties
  • Fraud Source—externally, or internally by employees

Our September 22 Risk Advisory Services webinar, a discussion of how a Data Destruction Policy can serve to reduce your risk exposure, will cover:

  1. Key Data Destruction terms and definitions
  2. A case study where business data was not properly disposed
  3. Available options to dispose of data and/or devices
  4. Benefits of working with a Data Destruction company
  5. Suggestions on how to develop your own Data Destruction Policy

Cybersecurity attacks continue to dominate the headlines. Independence Day week saw two widespread attacks, the Kaseya Ransomware attack, which resulted in costly downtime for more than a thousand companies, and a “zero day” Windows Print Spooler vulnerability impacting Windows operating systems that could have allowed remote code execution or privilege execution and the opening up new attack vectors.

Attacks are increasingly extending their devastation to organizations of all types and sizes. You are likely to have been, or soon will be, approached by your management about the status, or for an overview, of your IT Security. This month’s HBK Risk Advisory Services webinar will address techniques and suggestions for reporting on cybersecurity to management, including incorporating IT Security metrics into your reporting.

We will cover the following:

1. Key principles when reporting to management

2. A suggested approach when reporting to management

3. Characteristics of a valuable IT Security metric

4. The types of risk data management needs to know about

5. How to implement your IT Security metrics
