In a recent report, data privacy (55 percent) and data security (57 percent) are now top issues that are most important to consumers, and brands are starting to take notice. The uptick in privacy and compliance services for CynergisTek comes from organizations who understand that data privacy and security is a necessity, not a nice to have. These organizations are investing in building best-in-class privacy and security practices that are compliant with requirements such as the Department of Defense’s CMMC certification as a way to bolster the nation’s security and consumer privacy laws like GDPR for European residents and CCPA for California residents.
