Individual enterprises have a duty to protect themselves and their customers now

ASHLAND, OHIO, USA, February 17, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- IT Governance, the global provider of cybersecurity solutions, has published a US Data Breach Notification Law infographic to help US businesses understand the growing threat of cybercrime, and how to address their concerns.

“With over 348 million US records compromised last year, 209,000 unfilled cybersecurity positions, and no single federal law to govern data breaches, there is a real problem that US businesses need to address,” says Alan Calder, founder and executive chairman of IT Governance. “President Obama’s proposed Personal Data Notification and Protection Act is a step in the right direction, but individual enterprises have a duty to protect themselves and their customers now”.

IT Governance’s new infographic explains the cyber threats currently facing the US, the cybersecurity skills shortage, President Obama’s proposed data law, and routes to achieving effective cybersecurity.

Many organizations in the US, particularly in the legal, healthcare, and IT sectors, are turning to the information security standard, ISO 27001, to prove their commitment to cybersecurity.

The Standard specifies the best-practice requirements for an information security management system (ISMS), which covers all aspects of a business, including people, processes, and technology.

Registrations to the Standard jumped 36% in the US in 2013 compared to 2012 according to the latest ISO Survey, and the US boasts the tenth highest number of registrations to the Standard globally.

IT Governance’s ISO 27001 Get A Lot Of Help package provides a comprehensive mix of tools, training, and guidance to support businesses throughout their ISO 27001 implementation project. It has proven to be a popular solution for many businesses worldwide, which can take ownership of their ISO 27001-aligned ISMS without the need to engage consultants.

The ISO 27001 Get A Lot Of Help package is part of IT Governance’s full range of packaged solutions.

A 10% discount is currently available for online purchases of these packages.
