Privacy

Overall data governance. Because of the increased collection, use, and storage of data, mainly personal information, West Point Security can assist your company in setting up formal programs to manage the use of that information.

Globalization. Technology has allowed businesses to rapidly increase their global reach with international customers, often without any physical presence in their customer's jurisdictions.

Increased regulation. As personal information collection, use, and storage has grown, countries worldwide have enacted privacy regulations, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the strictest privacy law in the world.

Growth of vendor networks. The growth in the use of vendors has increased the need to manage an extended network of suppliers, contractors, consultants, and other third parties with access to corporate data. West Point Security can examine your third-party vendors and identify any associated risks.

Increased sensitivity. With the ever-increase in data collection by companies, the threats to that data have grown. To counter the increase in data breach incidents and social engineering attacks, West Point Security can assist your company in taking reasonable care to protect the sensitive data and risks associated with the unauthorized disclosure of personal information.

Privacy Risk Assessment.  Conducting a risk assessment is a key method for identifying which systems may be vulnerable to a  privacy incident. West Point Security's privacy risk assessment process identifies your company’s unique risk profile, which in turn forms the essential foundation for your company’s privacy program.
