Follow on Google News | The Imminent Arrival of Canadian Breach Notification Legislation Should be a Welcome ChangeCanadian security and privacy experts offer 5 recommendations to prepare for breach notification legislation and adopt mature data protection measures
By: Claudiu Popa According to Canadian security and privacy expert Claudiu Popa: “The lack of breach notification legislation in Canada has been, for the past few years, a key point of divergence in the mature adoption of security and privacy best practices. With nonexistent requirements for disclosing security and privacy breaches, we have had a lax climate of security awareness and technology adoption here in Canada, leading to events that have almost always been more serious than they needed to be”. Claudiu Popa is a certified security and privacy consultant, and president of Toronto-based Informatica Security Corporation. He is also the author of the Canadian Privacy and Security Toolkit, published by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and a trusted media resource: “Our own research no doubt mirrors what Privacy Commissioners have been supporting all along, and that is the fact that accountability and awareness of privacy and security breaches can be effectively catalyzed by effective notification requirements” Popa recommends that businesses prepare for these changes well ahead of time and incorporate the following best practices based on proven, globally-accepted standards: 1.Implement and test an enterprise-wide incident management plan 2.Adopt regular, verifiable security awareness training 3.Ensure that policies are communicated and understood 4.Perform regular security assessments at different operational risk layers 5.Appoint the right people in key security and privacy roles, and support them For more information or to request an interview, contact Claudiu Popa.
