Supply Chain Cybersecurity Risks are the Biggest Threat to Your Business Relationships!\u00a0<\/span>The average hacker has complete access to your network nine months before being detected. <\/span><\/p>\n

That is nine months of a cybercriminal digging into your financials, human resources information, and intellectual property!\u00a0 Further, if your business is storing, accessing, or transmitting client or patient data, you are legally responsible for securing those records. As a result, clients, prospects, and patients will view you as a security risk for sensitive information if you have a breach.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cybersecurity is Now Affordable for SMBs<\/span><\/h1>\n

In the past, managed security was unaffordable to SMBs. However, managed security cost decreased significantly in recent years, and technology has advanced tremendously. Therefore, small- and medium-sized businesses no longer rely on the basic block and tackle security techniques<\/a>. Instead, they can now armor their network with the most advanced cybersecurity<\/a> measures.<\/span><\/p>\n

Are You Responsible for Your Clients\u2019 Data?<\/h2>\n

In today’s world, many businesses are entrusted with sensitive information that belongs to another company. For this reason, supply-chain cybersecurity has become mandatory for vendors who access, transmit, or store sensitive data for enterprise or government entities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Regulated industries like health and finance require vendor risk assessments. Examples include the Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Graham-Leach- Bliley Act GLBA.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You should also take precautions if your business captures the following individuals’ personal information:<\/span>
\u2022 Credit Card\/Debit Card Information<\/span>
\u2022 Social Security Numbers<\/span>
\u2022 Phone Numbers<\/span>
\u2022 Addresses<\/span>
\u2022 Drivers License Number<\/span>
\u2022 Passwords<\/span>
\u2022 Banking Information<\/span>
\u2022 Your employees\u2019 personal information<\/span><\/p>\n

It is good practice to think through all the companies you share this information with, such as telemarketers, HR companies, data analysts, etc. It is critical to ensure your vendors safeguard your company\u2019s sensitive information.<\/span><\/p>\n

Georgia State Security Breach Notification<\/h2>\n

A<\/span>ll 50 states have implemented Security Breach Notification Laws that require businesses to notify individuals when a breach involves personally identifiable information. Specifically, Georgia Security Breach Notification Law<\/a> lists the data types that make individuals most vulnerable. Additional requirements state a company “shall notify the information broker or data collector of any breach of the security of the system within 24 hours following the discovery.”<\/p>\n

Therefore, it is not only good practice to perform a Risk Assessment on yourself but also insists that every vendor you share sensitive information does as well. Regardless of who is at fault for the breach, your employees and clients will ultimately hold you responsible if you do not do your due diligence.<\/p>\n

Root Cause of Most Cyber Security Data Breaches<\/h2>\n

Negligent employees and contractors account for 62% of all data breaches. The Ponemon Institute<\/a> 2022 Cost of Insider Threats: Global Report reveals that threat incidents have increased 44% over the past two years, with cost per incident up more than a third to $15.38 million.<\/span><\/h4>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n
