Information Security
The data you keep in your business is often of a personal nature and commercially sensitive. The increasing powers of the Information Commissioners Office to enforce compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998– from audit and inspections through to enforcement notices and fines of up to £500,000 – mean all businesses have to take the issue of securing personal data seriously. The impact of a data loss incident in terms of financial, legal and loss of reputation can be the undoing of your business so you need and Information Security Strategy in place.
Information Security Standards for SME’s: RMT have worked with ENISA, the European Network Information Security Agency, to develop an Information Security framework to help SME’s quickly implement information security polices. Designed for those businesses that need a strategy but don’t need full ISO27001 compliance, ask us to find out more.
