Build Trust and Resilience with Proven Security Frameworks
To protect sensitive data and comply with industry standards, a robust governance framework is essential. CDW Canada offers a holistic approach, integrating key frameworks into your cybersecurity strategy:
Zero-Trust Framework
At the core of zero trust is the principle of "never trust, always verify." CDW helps organizations interpret what zero trust means for their unique business risks, tailoring the approach to align with their operational needs and priorities. By unifying critical security measures, we ensure that your organization invests in the right combination of tools and strategies to prevent unauthorized access, mitigate risks and stay ahead of evolving threats.
Compliance Frameworks & Standards
Meeting industry standards like SOC 1, SOC 2 and PCI DSS is more than regulatory compliance – it can enhance trust, win contracts and set your organization apart. These frameworks provide benchmarks to assess your security posture, guiding smarter investments. CDW aligns your practices with these standards, reducing vulnerabilities while unlocking business value.
Incident Response Framework
A proactive incident response strategy can mean the difference between recovery and chaos during a security breach. CDW supports your cyber resiliency needs by developing tailored response plans, conducting management and technical tabletop exercises, and minimizing potential exposure and downtime.
Core Data Security Measures
Data is the lifeblood of modern organizations. It fuels innovation and drives decision-making. In today’s market, artificial intelligence (AI) relies heavily on secure and accurate data to deliver competitive insights and power emerging technologies. To secure one of your organization’s most valuable resources, consider these essential data security strategies:
Data Encryption
Protect sensitive information by encrypting it during transmission and storage, ensuring that only authorized parties can access it.
Data Masking
Replace sensitive data elements with non-sensitive counterparts in testing or non-production environments, reducing exposure to potential breaches.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
Monitor and safeguard sensitive data across its lifecycle – whether in use, in transit or at rest – to prevent unauthorized access or leaks.
Our solutions ensure that your data remains secure and accessible only to those who need it, empowering your organization to drive innovation and achieve sustained growth.
Modern Network Security Strategies
The rapid shift to hybrid and remote work has transformed how organizations approach network security. Traditional tools like firewalls and VPNs now operate as part of broader frameworks like secure access service edge (SASE) and security service edge (SSE). To protect your networks and ensure operational resilience, leverage these advanced security measures:
Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFW)
NGFWs provide protection beyond basic traffic filtering with intelligent threat detection and prevention capabilities tailored to today’s sophisticated cyberthreats.
Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDS/IPS)
IDS/IPS functionalities are now embedded within NGFWs, enhancing their ability to proactively monitor traffic, detect suspicious activity and respond to threats in real-time as part of a comprehensive security framework.
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
While VPNs remain vital, they now function as part of holistic frameworks like SASE, providing secure access in a remote work culture.
Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)
SIEM solutions remain vital for long-term data collection, compliance and application data analysis, providing a foundational layer to complement endpoint-focused detection and response capabilities.
