Data security breaches are becoming the norm rather than the exception and are therefore increasingly a problem. When your data security is compromised you need to act quickly. Breaches of information security can be high profile and can damage public trust and confidence. Furthermore, the introduction of GDPR has created stricter obligations in relation to data security and more onerous notification requirements in respect data breaches.

Plan + Prepare

RDJ will design a Cyber Health Check tailored to your business to highlight potential cyber security vulnerabilities. We work with your team to develop an effective Cyber Incident Response Plan to ensure that in the highly pressurised breach situation you, your business and your team are Ready to Respond.
