Clients of all shapes and sizes receive inbound assessments from much larger organizations with something strikingly similar to one another: they all use this 5 point scale that makes no sense to smaller companies. Initial? Managed? What do these all mean?

Let’s help explain to you what these are.

At JustProtect, our goal is to provide software for companies of all sizes to assess themselves and the companies they wish to trust. As a result, we are consistently maturing our security program and best practices that are auditable, repeatable, and developed to a baseline that is accessible to all. To further expand our best practices, we committed to achieving Type 1 SOC 2 attestation in 2020 for Security, Availability, and Confidentiality trust principals.

It was reported that contractors in China used by Microsoft to train Cortana, their AI engine, were granted access to voice recordings with minimal cybersecurity controls.  A former contractor told the Guardian that workers were not vetted and shared account credentials were able to be used on personal laptops.

            Regulatory compliance can be a daunting task for small companies for a variety of reasons. For some, it could be that they do not have the necessary staff to commit to such a project. For others, it may be the lack of capital to pay an expensive consultant to do it for them. Another issue that plagues small companies is the lack of knowledge required to navigate the treacherous waters of regulatory compliance. While JustProtect may not be able to provide your company with more employees or extra money, something we can give you is knowledge. And Knowledge is Power.
