The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), enacted in 2018, standardizes data privacy laws while increasing the transparency with which organizations approach this hot-button issue.

Effective cybersecurity requires a proactive approach. This includes penetration testing, which simulates a cyberattack against your organization. It allows an IT partner like CMIT Solutions to identify and repair vulnerabilities before a hacker does, as well as support compliance with data privacy and security regulations.
