HDUK Limited is managed by professionals with years of corporate management experience delivering IT, Service and Compliance. The majority of our clients today are relatively small operations employing between 1 and 50 individuals, without the deep pockets or big budgets that a multi-national invests in hired staff to routinely perform due diligence security checks on their public facing assets – websites or apps. However ‘small’ we think we are – we are exposed to exactly the same risks as large corporations :
Website Security Risks Impact
- Data Theft
- Malicious Code
- Unauthorised Access
- Fraud – through impersonation
- Punitive Fines for GDPR breaches
- Loss of business and revenue
- Reputational Damage
Website Due Diligence Actions
Whilst it is seemingly impossible to cover all the bases we have a primary duty of care to :
- Identify risks – treat or mitigate
- Demonstrate that security is taken seriously
- Constantly improve
Unfortunately too many organisations take a knee jerk approach to Website Security Due Diligence – reacting to legislative or regulatory demands such as GDPR or the professional body they are a part of. Others rank the importance of web security based on its impact on performance e.g. how security, such as SSL impacts on SEO ranking. We continue to be surprised (shocked, amazed, appalled) by the number of ‘professional’ websites – public and private sector, that we encounter that are waving Cyber Essentials and Information Security banners and badges yet lack the obvious – encryption, an appropriate and relevant privacy policy, opt in on contact forms, exposed credentials…
