Is security compliance a hot topic? Absolutely…
These days, organizations are facing mounting pressure to comply with increasingly complex cybersecurity regulations and standards. The risks? High-stakes penalties and rising costs — both financial and reputational.
Just numbers — take NIS2, for example: non-compliance can cost essential entities up to €10 million or 2% of global annual revenue, and important entities up to €7 million or 1.4%.
According to PwC’s Global Compliance Study 2025, 85% of executives say compliance requirements have become more complex in the past three years. And for 51%, technology compliance — especially cybersecurity, data privacy, and protection — is now a top priority.
So, what measures should be taken to meet strict security compliance requirements?
Well, among the basic ones, we need to mention:
📌 Risk assessments
📌 Strong security controls (encryption, IAM, firewalls)
📌 A resilient backup and every-scenario-ready Disaster Recovery strategy
📌 Automation
📌 And a team trained in modern compliance expectations
What grabs attention here is every-scenario-ready Disaster Recovery? Can it be a reliable shield and the ground of your compliance strategy? Yeap… However, Disaster Recovery can’t exist without a well-built and thoughtful backup strategy. And even compliance protocols tell us that backup is an essential part of becoming compliant.
Need proof?
“The measures referred to in paragraph 1 shall be based on an all-hazards approach that aims to protect network and information systems and the physical environment of those systems from incidents, and shall include at least the following: … (c) business continuity, such as backup management and disaster recovery, and crisis management…”

“The company performs daily backups and tests recovery periodically.”

SOC 2? Well, the SOC 2 compliance is based on five Trust Services Criteria: Security, Availability, Processing Integrity, Confidentiality, and Privacy. And here, let’s pay our attention to Availability! It means that organizations should have within this criterion performance monitoring, Disaster Recovery, and security incident handling.
