SD: What do you think are the worst cyberthreats today?

Seers: As the landscape of cybersecurity threats is expanding, and it has become more complex as new policies are emerging worldwide. It is now a challenge for businesses to protect their consumers’ privacy.

I think personal information breach is a big threat as data violations continue to dominate headlines around the globe. Although a data breach might occur as a consequence of an unintentional error, serious damage can occur if someone with unauthorized access steals and sells Personally Identifiable Information (PII) or business intelligence data for financial benefit without the user’s prior consent.

It is a major concern for data privacy and can be devastating for every size of a company. This is the worst threat that any corporation will wish to shield itself from enormous financial fines. As an endpoint privacy solution provider, our focus is to provide the best breach management practices in the industry. To comply and protect their consumers’ rights and save them from heavy fines or legal actions by achieving compliance under privacy regulations.
