💼 Small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) often underestimate their vulnerability to cyber threats, primarily because they lack the necessary tools and expertise to protect against these risks. That's where a 𝐕𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐈𝐒𝐎 (Chief Information Security Officer) comes into play! 💼

A Virtual CISO is not only a cost-effective solution, but they can also deliver a wealth of experience and knowledge to help SMBs prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber threats. They oversee the company's information security program ensuring it aligns with the business objectives while meeting regulatory and compliance requirements.

Just because your business isn't large doesn't mean it isn't a target. In fact, cybercriminals are increasingly targeting SMBs as they often have less fortified defenses. A strong cybersecurity strategy isn't a luxury, it's a necessity!

Considering the latest Data Privacy laws that are coming in August, Australian companies now more than ever need to pay attention to the data they are collecting and to ensure they are not retaining past its "sell by date!" The benefit of having a Virtual CISO on hand is that they will help you with your data privacy and data security requirements!

I've provided a link to a short overview video that explains some of the essential security elements you need to build out a successful cybersecurity program...👇
