They’re real. They’re everywhere. They’re happening to all of us.
Protecting sensitive data and maintaining compliance with regulations should be a top priority for all of us. The larger companies have figured it out - with standards and certifications like ISO 27001. However, ISO is expensive and complex. We’ve created a whittled-down, simpler version for startups to adopt from day one - from incident response to access management to employee education.
Think of it as advice from people who understand what the practical security structure should look like. We’ve deconstructed ISO 27001 into building blocks so you can build your security structure.
Why Should You Look to Implement This Basic Security Framework?
You signal to your customers that both their money and their business are safe with you.
Build trust with your business partners - especially larger-sized partners - for integration to drive your business growth
Confidently engage current and potential investors on the measures you’ve taken to ensure information security in your company

So what are the building blocks?
