When rules that control what companies can do are taken away or made less strict, it’s called deregulation. Imagine it’s like removing the training wheels from a bike; it gives you the chance to ride faster and try new tricks. In the world of business, this sometimes happens because it can help companies grow bigger and come up with cool new ideas that can change how we live.

But here’s the thing – when those training wheels come off, it’s also a lot easier to fall. In the world of computers and the internet, falling could mean that information gets stolen or systems get broken into by people who want to do harm. So, even though companies might be excited about having fewer rules, they also need to be really careful to keep their computer systems safe.

Think about a row of those silver desk toys with the hanging balls that clack back and forth. Each ball represents part of a company – one for growth, one for innovation, and one for security. When one ball swings out, like growth because of deregulation, the security ball needs to swing to match it. If it doesn’t, the whole toy could get off balance and cause a mess.

So companies should be like superheroes, always on the lookout for danger and ready to act to protect themselves and the people they serve. They need to take responsibility for their security by being proactive – this means not waiting around for bad things to happen, but getting ready ahead of time.

Now, this can be a lot to handle, especially if a company is focusing hard on growing and making the most of new opportunities. The good news is that they don’t have to do it alone.
