1. Making the Digital Shift and complying with Bill 25
The transformation of society, based notably on the digital and technological revolution, is driving an increase in the flow of computer and digital exchanges. The new demands of commerce and the States have forced businesses to a greater level of innovation and more intense regulation to protect them in their business processes and allow them to remain competitive, efficient, and modern. Today, every company goes digital, driven by the imperatives of the digital economy, and put in place a governance plan including the appointment of a Privacy Officer, the implementation of privacy and confidentiality policies, privacy incident management, information transfer and access, security and information management policies.
Regulations and the market impose on businesses a responsibility to protect data and secure their systems. IT security is a vital issue for the survival and durability of the business. It is a fact that most businesses are or will be attacked by hackers. Faced with external and internal cyber threats, the company must imperatively ensure the cybersecurity of its information assets, which obviously includes the personal data collected during its activities. In fact, it is now legally required to secure data entering and leaving the business.
Pandemic and telework have disrupted the cybersecurity landscape and continue to drive mobile and virtual computing (telework). The demand for unified endpoint cybersecurity continues to grow and, at the same time, has become increasingly complex.
The implementation of an information governance program is an efficient and orderly way to undertake the digital shift and a lawyer is the best person to implement such a vehicle because records and information management is a specialized area of law: contact us to learn more!
2. Your Needs
-
Document your data security process
The security of your data is not only a computer issue, but also above all ensuring the survival of the business as well as its protection. It is the responsibility of its officer, its employees, its partners, and its clients. As a matter of fact, in case of an attack, the business is exposed to irreversible damages, both financial and reputational.
Competitive and technological changes force businesses to act with great agility to modify their structures and even their business models. Therefore, more than ever, digital technology is transforming businesses.
These transitions have a significant impact on the way businesses operate, their processes and methods. To remain productive and increase profitability, businesses must create, adapt, and secure the digitization of their business processes.
Transactions related to computers and the internet raise complex technical and legal issues that require the multidisciplinary expertise of our lawyers, who can explain and provide effective digital solutions.
