CommPRONewsItemBy CommPro.biz Editorial StaffInternational PR firm TransMedia Group said it's facing a bit of a "cyber dilemma" after having been hired to launch CyberSecuritySeal, a mark warning hackers that personal data stored on a website is protected.The firm said it was weighing the positives and negatives of launching a Public Relations campaign that could be tricky as the goal is to warn hackers to move on, but without presenting a tantalizing challenge for them to try and break through a site's security.CyberSecuritySeal is a mark that is the online equivalent of those awarded by Good Housekeeping, The Better Business Bureau and other organizations validating high standards of quality, only this seal is a sign of state-the-art data security applied to a company's website."The trick is to discourage hackers in a way that doesn't sound like an enticing challenge to their nefarious impulses," said Tom Madden, founder of TransMedia Group.TransMedia said the CyberSecuritySeal™ will be a registered mark that assures customers that a site has passed a security review, implemented an Incidence Response Plan and put in place safeguards and strategies to improve the security of personal data, thereby reducing the risk of a data breach."Our publicity will emphasize that display of The CyberSecuritySeal on a website is clear warning to anyone attempting to steal data that there is tracking technology embedded that will assist authorities to identify invaders and lead to their arrest and prosecution to the fullest extent of the law," said Madden.
