The California Consumer Privacy Act is right around the corner. Organizations will need to be compliant starting in 2020. 

CCPA is a game-changer for the cybersecurity space. 

The ability for your customers to sue you for breaches without even having to prove damages is a huge change. 

But you can be exempt from legal liability if you "have reasonable security measures" in place and use encryption. 

In this episode, we're going to talk about some of the security frameworks that you can use to build security programs. 

Cybersecurity is a concern that all companies have to deal with. It’s not something only for large companies. 

You see, like it or not, we are actually in a cyber war. Nations are actively targeting and attacking one another. 

Companies just find themselves caught up in the cross fire. 

In today’s episode, our guest, David Sims, a MSP owner talks about some of the common mistakes and misconceptions that SMBs make around security.

You have probably heard someone say or even thought at some point - I don't have anything of value for a cyber attacker. 

If so, you are actually very very wrong. 

In this episode, Angela Hill, an ex-CIA analyst walks us through how and why nation states are actively targeting and compromising small and medium businesses. 

You will be surprised to find that they value every business as a target.

For small and medium organizations, implementing a formal security program can see like a huge task. 

However, breaking this into small steps can help make that goal seem more attainable. 

The CIS 20 security controls is a framework that every SMB should begin implementing. Under CCPA, organizations that are following a proven framework, will be exempt from some of the litigation liabilities. CIS 20 is one of the frameworks that California attorney generals have accepted in the past. 

If you don't have a security program in place, your organization is like tacking the problem in an ad-hoc manner. Should an attack happen, being organized will give a much greater attempt of surviving.
