October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, an ideal time for organizations to re-evaluate their security posture, renew employee awareness, and implement stronger controls. At GDS, we believe that one month of focus can spark lasting improvements in cybersecurity culture. In this post, we’ll highlight key themes from CISA’s official toolkit and show you how to turn them into action steps for your business.

Security certifications aren’t just logos on a website, they’re proof of performance. At Global Data Systems, we proudly maintain our System and Organization Controls 2 (SOC 2) Type II certification to give our clients confidence in how we manage, process, and protect their data.
