could you possibly know your data has been compromised? Imagine
that one day while you were out at work someone broke into your
home. They made a copy of your passport and then left unnoticed,
leaving no evidence of their presence. How could you possibly know
that something was amiss? Unless you knew for certain that someone
had been in your home? It’s a similar concept. This is why data
breaches take so long to identify. As a result, compromised data could
be used in a damaging way well before the a�ected party even
realises.
The challenge in making sure your business isn’t one of these statistics
lies in your cyber security management. Implement active network
monitoring, data loss prevention, and next-gen �rewall with anti-
malware. These tools are all designed to alert you to any suspicious
activity and attempted breaches.

Lastly, and this is not an accessible option for every business, but
redundant infrastructure is also going to be your lifesaver here. In the
event of a serious cyber attack that puts your whole system out of
action; a redundant server exists to take over in the immediate
aftermath of said failure.
In 2019, we are looking at two primary regulations that have come into
e�ect. Based in the EU, you have the General Data Protection
Regulation and here in Australia, we have the Noti�able Data Breaches
Scheme. Despite being far from the EU, if your business handles any
information for customers or business partners in the EU; you’ll be on
the hook. And it’s almost guaranteed that your business falls within
the requirements for compliance of the NDBS and the Privacy Act.
Unless your business has a cool $420,000 lying around to spare in
�nes; it’s important to ensure you’re complying with the Australian
regulations (even if it’s just to protect your wallet).
