SUSTAINABLE

We help clients establish effective and scalable governance with clear roles and responsibilities to continually sustain their organization's privacy and security program. We help you gain commitment and support from C-level executives for the development of the organizational strategy to protect sensitive personal information and obtain appropriate resources and budget to facilitate its implementation enterprise-wide. We partner with your IT professionals and functional managers, implementing an enterprise-wide privacy and security program.

DEFENSIBLE

We help clients develop and implement a risk ownership and management approach to identify foreseeable risks and apply reasonable standards of care to create a legally defensible posture.

Many "compliant" organizations suffer security incidents and privacy breaches. Laws, regulations and standards cannot keep pace with the growth of the information age, the Internet, new technologies, and threats and vulnerabilities.

TRUSTWORTHY

Trust is implicit in doing business and privacy is part of the trust equation.
