The increasing complexity of cybercrime and growing consumer expectations has made strong privacy protections essential to avoid significant reputational, financial, and legal risks.
Wotton Kearney works with clients across various industries to help them address a wide range of privacy concerns, including privacy compliance, data security, and strengthening their privacy posture.
We also assist clients to develop data policies, conduct privacy audits, and ensure regulatory alignment, while our tailored training sessions are designed to upskill teams on key privacy topics.
Cyber Readiness & Data Protection
We help clients prepare, protect, and respond to cyber threats and data challenges, including through:
Cyber Readiness
We help your business stay prepared for cyber incidents with tailored risk management services, including incident response plans, simulation exercises, and contract reviews to mitigate external risks.
Our guidance on crisis management, business continuity, and disaster recovery ensures your team is equipped to respond effectively and minimise disruption.
Data Risk Management
Managing data securely while meeting regulatory requirements is essential. We conduct data mapping exercises and review your data lifecycle processes, from collection to disposal, to help you understand your data landscape.
We also assist in developing or refining data-related policies and agreements, including data transfer and third-party service provider agreements, ensuring protection against legal and regulatory risks.
Post-Incident Privacy Posture
Following a cyber incident, we help you review and strengthen your privacy posture and incident response processes. This is the perfect opportunity to reassess your cyber resilience and ensure your privacy framework complies with regulatory requirements.
We work with you to identify gaps, remediate any non-compliances, recommend improvements, and provide training for your team, helping your organisation learn from the incident and enhance your privacy program.
