Dawgen introduces breakthrough cybersecurity services for Caribbean businesses, powered by Ostra Now offering best-in-class data protection for small

[Kingston, Jamaica, Mar. 29, 2022] — Dawgen Global, through its member firm Dawgen USA, Inc., has launched a breakthrough cybersecurity service offering for businesses operating in the Caribbean.

Dawgen Global cybersecurity practice is now powered by Ostra Cybersecurity. Ostra’s proprietary, multi-faceted, plug-and-play infrastructure provides a sphere of protection unmatched by any individual product in the marketplace. Ostra provides businesses peace of mind by eliminating cyber risk with one comprehensive solution so they can focus on what is most important… growing their business.

Dawgen Global is an integrated, multidisciplinary professional services firm in the Caribbean Region that provides several professional services, including: Audit, Accounting, Tax, IT, Risk, HR, Performance, M&A, Corporate Recovery and other advisory services.

According to the executive chairman of Dawgen Global, Dr. Dawkins Brown, the firm’s entry into cybersecurity services is an expansion of its Risk Advisory practice. “We are a business solutions firm that focuses on clients’ needs,” states Dr. Brown. “Dawgen is focused on adding value to our clients—and we see it as part of our duty to integrate relevant products and services that help them deal with the realities of the current threat landscape, which includes significant cybersecurity risks to organizations of every size.”

Dawgen’s cybersecurity services will focus on the entire spectrum of increasing and emerging risks—including disruption due to innovation, cyber threats, geopolitical instability, and other trends—and helping clients create more value for their organizations through intelligent risk-management strategies.

“Ostra is excited to work with Dawgen Global as a trusted partner,” said Mike Barlow, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Ostra. “They are uniquely poised to introduce this Fortune 100-caliber, comprehensive cybersecurity solution to help protect businesses in the Caribbean.”

 Responding to growing cybersecurity risks

Cybersecurity is essential for the community of small businesses and medium-sized companies to address. According to Small Business Trends and the Verizon Business 2020 Data Breach Investigations Report (2020 DBIR), nearly one-third of data breaches in 2020 involved small businesses.

 Dawgen Global’s cybersecurity practice, powered by Ostra, will provide affordable data security solutions to businesses who are experiencing massive change in their virtual workforces, expanding their IT infrastructure, and navigating an ever-increasing number of data security regulations.

 The need to maintain appropriate levels of cybersecurity and data privacy is critical to society at large, and its importance is growing daily. Rapid advancements in technology have resulted in a large-scale integration of computing, communication, and information technologies into virtually every aspect of our society. These technologies are at the heart of emerging advancements in transportation, manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, utilities, recreation, financial, social media, and many other domains. The incorporation of cyber technologies into a wide array of industries is tearing down barriers as information is gathered and shared in order to facilitate previously unimaginable improvements in capabilities, efficiency, and cost.

 This is why, when a ransomware attack or data breach occurs,  the damage is rarely confined to one company, region, or industry. An attack designed to impact one network may inadvertently or deliberately infect, impair or disable any other systems that are associated with it. Small companies are often targeted because hackers want access to their clients’ customer lists, proprietary technology, credit card records, or employees’ personal information—all of which can open up additional avenues for financial exploitation. Cyberattacks also blur the lines between state-versus-state “warfare” activities, state-sponsored intelligence activities, and criminal activities.
