Security is one of the most important topics in IT and it has attention all the way up to the CEO in international enterprise organisations. In recent years, we have seen companies being paralyzed by cyber attacks costing billions of dollars and, accordingly, the awareness of the importance of IT security is constantly growing.
To have the right level of IT security is always a balance of costs and risks – and this balance is constantly evolving as networks are being more and more integrated and IT attackers are becoming increasingly sophisticated.

GDPR – The EU General Data Protection Regulation
The EU’s new General Data Protection Regulation, which will be enforced in May 2018, generally changes how companies operating in Europe must act to be compliant with regards to how they store and process personal data.
We have seen great value from independent consultants doing intensive projects with our customers to analyse their current situation and create and implement a clear action plan to ensure GDPR compliance.
Besides expert knowledge of GDPR, the best suited consultants for these tasks must have both a strong business understanding and a strong technical knowledge.
The video below gives an introduction to EU’s new General Data Protection Regulation and general advice on what needs to be done to be GDPR compliant.
