Attacks can have devastating consequences. User data can be stolen, putting businesses at risk of regulatory compliance violations and bad publicity. Financial fraud can be committed, resulting in lost revenue. And, of course, there’s the loss of customer and shareholder trust, all having impact on brand reputation. If the attack goes on long enough, a business could sustain irreparable damage.
STC takes continuous steps to stay compliant and—mainly—ahead of their cyber adversaries.
