Compliance & Cybersecurity: The Key to a Secure and Successful Business

Adolfo Di Fonzo, co-founder and Cybersec Operation Manager of CyberSA Srl, reveals how effective compliance management can transform into a true competitive advantage for businesses

Adolfo, why is compliance so crucial for cybersecurity in modernorganizations

Cybersecurity is not just about data protection , but safeguarding the beating heart of a company: business and people that make it possible. Compliance with voluntary standards such as ISO27001 it is not merely a bureaucratic requirement, but a strategic tool to achieve these two fundamental objectives. Business leaders should embrace compliance obligations not as a burden, but as anopportunity. Only through a concrete commitment to data protection and cybersecurity can they demonstrate, in the event of an incident, that they have acted with the diligence and responsibility of a “good family man.” This mindset not only protects the company from legal consequences but also creates a corporate culture in which security is a shared value integrated into every process.

What are the critical points that companies need to address to improve their compliance?

Managing technological resources, ensuring a effective IT governance , and guaranteeing operational continuity are fundamental aspects. Many companies underestimate the importance of thorough Technological Due Diligence, which includes infrastructure checks, code analysis, vulnerability testing, and supplier evaluation. However, complying with regulations can seem challenging, especially for smaller entities, but it is essential to find a balance between compliance and economic sustainability .

At CyberSA, we help companies integrate compliance into their operational processes, transforming it from an obligation into a competitive advantage. With our approach, we not only minimize risks but also optimize resource utilization, supporting secure and sustainable growth .

What is the winning approach when it comes to compliance? In a final word…

Compliance should not be seen as a cost, but as an opportunity to create value in the long term.

With an integrated and security-based approach, CyberSA supports companies in tackling compliance challenges , ensuring data protection and operational continuity—key elements for a secure, resilient , and successful business!!
