How to Review Cybersecurity Risks Before Sharing Data With a Business Partner

A data-sharing arrangement can create new copies, access paths, and incident responsibilities outside the organization.

Checks to make

Identify data fields and purpose, recipient roles and systems, transfer protection, retention and deletion, and breach notification responsibilities. Limit initial scope, verify the partner’s handling route, and assign an internal data owner.
