Why do startups need cybersecurity?
Protecting Sensitive Data
Maintaining Trust and Reputation:
Startups often handle sensitive customer information, intellectual property, and proprietary business data. Cybersecurity measures help protect this data from breaches, leaks, and unauthorized access.
A security breach can damage a startup's reputation and erode customer trust. Implementing strong cybersecurity practices demonstrates a commitment to protecting customer data, which can enhance trust and loyalty.
Compliance with Regulations
Many industries are subject to strict data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA). Compliance with these regulations requires robust cybersecurity measures to avoid legal penalties and fines.
Preventing Financial Loss
Cyberattacks can result in significant financial losses due to theft of funds, intellectual property, or business disruptions. Startups, with typically limited financial resources, may find it especially challenging to recover from such losses.
What can happen to a startup if it ignores cybersecurity?
Examples of Devastating Cyber Incidents:
-
Hello Barbie (2014): The data theft of 1.5 million children due to a cyberattack led to the loss of investor trust and the company's closure.
-
Yahoo (2013-2014): Two separate cyberattacks compromised the data of all 3 billion Yahoo users. These incidents led to a significant reduction in the company's sale price to Verizon by approximately $350 million.
-
CrowdFlower (2017): A cyberattack that compromised the data of 60 million people significantly decreased the company's value, forcing it to sell for much less than expected.
Reliability Confirmation
Startup Reliability Confirmation
To earn user trust and collaborate with clients, a startup must demonstrate its reliability. Consequently, sooner or later, startups face the need to implement the best practices in cybersecurity and comply with global standards.
To meet the requirements of global security standards, the necessary conditions include:
Presence of a need for its implementation (usually due to external requests)
Availability of resources and a budget for its implementation
(responsible person / budget from $30K)
Sufficient time to meet all requirements (typically 3 to 9 months).
The most common security standards requested from startups include:
ISO 27001: International standard for information security management.
SOC 2: Type of audit report used in the USA.
PCI DSS: Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard.
Hippa: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. U.S. legislation for protecting medical information.
ISO 27018: Standard for protecting personal data in the cloud.
NIST: National Institute of Standards and Technology (USA).
CCPA: California Consumer Privacy Act. State law enhancing privacy rights for California residents.
GDPR: General Data Protection Regulation (EU).
