Let me question the credibility they may have this type of solution usually incomplete. As an example, most of the time the consultants only make some adjustment to the organizational measures that implement leaving aside the technical measures. They also forget (or know) that security is a “living process” and not a product that delivered to the customer in the form of security document to be stored in a cupboard collecting dust. In both cases the adjustments are incomplete and therefore the customer would breach the law And I wonder … Why are these arguments? Are the easiest to get to sell? Is it worth it? Personally I give advice to anyone who wants to adapt their treatments to compliance with the Act Ask your consultant to explain the real benefits it produces an adaptation and if you can not find another answer!.

For example an accidental deletion of information without having an adequate backup plan. I propose a very simple exercise. Ask the person responsible to calculate the economic value that could be a partial loss and / or full of information and its consequences. What would it cost to retrieve the information entered during the last month? How long will reinvest the employees to recover the information? And while employees who attends the manually restore the business? How much money does that? Partial loss could be detrimental to its image with respect to customers, offering them a disservice by not availability, etc. How about a total loss?
