No matter how big or small your company might seem right now – there are always vulnerabilities that could put them at risk!
Here we have listed 14 ways you can protect yourself from these attacks with just a few simple changes…
Educate your employees on the dangers of cyber-attacks and how to protect themselves
Train your users – often! Teach them about data security, Social Engineering Attacks, email attacks, and your policies and procedures.
Educate your employees on Phishing scams
When it comes to Phishing scams, the best defense is a good offense. Educate your employees on how phishers tricks them into thinking they’re actually getting an email from company headquarters and what steps you should take in response so that no one gets taken advantage of!
Install a firewall to protect your computer systems from unauthorized access
Intrusion Detection and Intuition may be the only way to keep your business safe from outside threats. Make sure that these features are enabled on all of our devices, so we can send you logs in case anything goes wrong!
Use strong passwords and change them regularly
Apply security policies on your network. Examples: Deny or limit USB file storage access, enable enhanced password policies, set user screen timeouts, and limit user access.
Back up your data regularly in case of an attack
Backup local. Back up to the cloud. Have an offline backup for each month of the year. Test your backups often. And if you aren’t convinced your backups are working properly, call us ASAP.
Restrict access to sensitive information only to authorized personnel
Accessing company data should be limited to those with a need for it.
Use anti-virus software and keep it up-to-date
There are plenty of anti-virus options for your business equipment. We can help advise on the best route to take.
Monitor employee internet usage and email activity for any suspicious behavior
Internet security is a race against time. Cloudbased security detects web and email threats as they emerge on the Internet and blocks them on your network within seconds before they reach the user.
Carry out an overall Security Assessment
It’s important to establish a baseline and close existing vulnerabilities. When was your last assessment?
Implement Advanced Endpoint Detection and Response
Protect your computers data from malware, viruses and cyberattacks with advanced endpoint security. Today’s latest technology (which replaces your outdated antivirus solutions) protects against fileless and script-based threats and can even rollback a ransomware attack
Implement Multi-Factor Authentication
Utilise MFA whenever you can including on your network, banking websites and even social media. It adds an additional layer of protection to ensure that even if your password does get stolen, your data stays protected.
Carry out a Dark Web Scan and continue to monitor.
Knowing in real-time which passwords and accounts have been posted on the dark web will allow you to be proactive in preventing a data breach. We scan the Dark Web to take action and protect your business from stolen credentials that have been posted for sale.
