Data privacy and regulatory compliance have become non-negotiable for businesses of all sizes. Whether you're handling customer information, processing payments, or storing client files — you're expected to meet strict data protection standards. Two of the most important ones today are GDPR and ISO 27001.
If you're not compliant, you're not just risking fines — you're risking trust, reputation, and revenue.

What Is GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the EU’s data privacy law. It applies to any business — anywhere in the world — that collects or processes personal data of EU citizens. That includes emails, names, IP addresses, and more.
Key requirements:
Consent must be clear and explicit
Individuals have the right to access, correct, or delete their data
Data breaches must be reported within 72 hours
Fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of global turnover
What Is ISO 27001?
ISO/IEC 27001 is the international gold standard for information security management. It’s not a legal requirement, but it demonstrates that your business takes cybersecurity seriously — and it's increasingly requested by clients and partners.
Key benefits:
Structured approach to managing sensitive information
Reduces the risk of breaches and business disruptions
Builds customer confidence and supports business growth
Can be a competitive advantage in tenders and partnerships
Why It Matters for SMBs
Many small and mid-sized businesses believe compliance is only for big corporations — but that’s no longer true. Cyber threats and regulatory audits don’t discriminate by company size. In fact, regulators often target smaller businesses because they’re less likely to be compliant.
How an MSSP Can Help
Achieving and maintaining compliance requires:
Regular risk assessments
Proper access controls
Documentation and security policies
Real-time monitoring and alerting
