You’ve heard that a cyber attack could affect your business with…
🔲 Financial loss, reputational damage, and legal liabilities
🔲 Non-compliance with regulations, like PIPEDA, PHIPA, PCI-DSS, etc.
🔲 Loss of trust and credibility with customers, partners, and other stakeholders
🔲 Loss of competitive advantage in the market
🔲 Raise in insurance premium
🔲 Decrease is company valuation
So, what are you doing about it? It’s not that you don’t care. Instead, it could be that...
🔲 You don't understand the risks and consequences of a cyberattack to your business.
🔲 You think cybersecurity initiatives are costly, and don't see a direct return on investment.
🔲 You don't understand how cybersecurity efforts relate to your specific industry or business model.
🔲 You're busy and don't have the time or resources to devote to cybersecurity initiatives.
🔲 You have a false sense of security, and believe that you're already adequately protected.
🔲 You find cybersecurity complex and difficult, and don't know where to start.
🔲 You don't have the in-house expertise to deal with cybersecurity, and you don't know who to turn to for help.
🔲 Above all, you don’t know what’s the bare minimum security controls you need to be cyber secure.
This is where the CyberSecure Canada Certification comes to rescue. Using Pareto’s 80/20 principle, it provides a framework to implement base cybersecurity controls that’ll achieve 80% of the desired cyber resilience from 20% of the effort. It’s not perfect, but it’s enough for most Canadian SMEs.
The CyberSecure Canada Certification will help you to …
Demonstrate that you take cybersecurity seriously
Obtaining CyberSecure Canada certification demonstrates to customers and partners that your company takes cybersecurity seriously and has implemented industry-standard security measures. This can be especially important for your business if you handle sensitive information, such as personal data or financial transactions. Having the certification can help to build trust and increase customer loyalty, as customers will have confidence in your company's ability to protect their personal and financial information. Additionally, it can also help to attract new customers and partners, as many companies have policies in place to only do business with those who demonstrate sound cybersecurity practice.
Having CyberSecure Canada certification can help your business to comply with various regulations related to data protection and privacy, such as the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Compliance with these regulations is not only a legal requirement but also a best practice for protecting sensitive information. Failure to comply with regulations can result in fines, penalties, and legal action, which can be costly for your business. Additionally, it can also cause reputational damage, which can be hard to recover from.
Comply with various regulations
Identify and address potential vulnerabilities
The certification process includes an assessment of your company's cybersecurity policies and procedures, as well as a review of the company's technical infrastructure. This can help your business to identify areas where you may be vulnerable to cyber attacks, such as outdated software or weak passwords. By addressing these vulnerabilities, your business can reduce the risk of data breaches and other cyber attacks, which can help to protect your reputation and bottom line.
Improve incident response capabilities
The certification process includes an assessment of your company's security event log management procedures, as well as a review of your incident response plan. This can help your business to identify and address potential risks, as well as develop a plan to respond quickly and effectively in the event of a cyber attack.
Improve overall compliance posture
Cybersecurity controls for standards such as CyberSecure Canada, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2 have a lot of commonalities. Implementing CyberSecure Canada controls can help your company to comply with many of the controls for others as well, thus taking your company one step closer to achieving those certifications in the future.
Improve overall reputation and increase competitiveness
As more and more companies are starting to recognize the importance of cybersecurity, they are looking for partners and vendors that have been certified to have sound cybersecurity practice. This can provide your company the necessary edge over your competition.
