Privacy and security obligations grow every year. Compliance as a service (CaaS)
turns one-time projects into steady, managed practice.

**What drives compliance for Canadian businesses**

– **Quebec’s Law 25** for personal information of people in Quebec

– **PIPEDA** at the federal level, and similar provincial laws

– **Contractual obligations** from customers who require security standards

– **Cyber insurance requirements**

– **Industry rules,** such as payment card standards (PCI DSS) and sector regulations

– **Frameworks** such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and the CPCSC for defence suppliers

**What a compliance service typically includes**

– **Gap assessment** against the relevant requirements

– **Policies and procedures:** privacy, acceptable use, incident response, retention

– **Technical controls:** MFA, encryption, logging, backup, and patching

– **Risk and privacy impact assessments**

– **Incident registers and breach procedures**

– **Vendor and cloud provider reviews**

– **Staff training**

– **Evidence collection** for audits and customer questionnaires

– **Regular reviews and reporting**

**Why ongoing matters**

– Systems and vendors change

– Staff turn over

– New regulations and customer demands appear

– Evidence needs to be current when an auditor or customer asks

**What a service can’t do**

Compliance is a shared responsibility. The provider can build and maintain controls,
but your leadership decides risk, owns decisions, and must follow the procedures.
Legal interpretation belongs with qualified legal counsel.

**Choosing a provider**

– Experience with your specific requirements

– Clear deliverables and responsibilities

– Technical capability to implement controls, not just write documents

– Transparency about what’s included

**Start with the basics**

Know what personal data you hold, secure it, document your practices, and prepare
to respond to incidents.
