SHARED CYBERSECURITY RESPONSIBILITY DISCLAIMER

U.S. Computer Connection’s Responsibility: to communicate with the client (your organization) any security weaknesses/vulnerabilities/deficiencies identified in the process of providing IT services. These recommendations are not to be considered a risk assessment, security audit, or security review. These are internal functions each client must perform on their end as part of due care and due diligence. The client then reviews our recommendations, and based on their Risk Management approach, implements controls based on their level of acceptable risk for their organization.
