Employee Cyber Crime Education is Often Overlooked
Educating your employees and stakeholders is vital in strengthening your protection against cyber threats. Everyone in your organization must be aware and on guard, knowing how to treat emails and file attachments—especially when they come from an unfamiliar email address.
Find out if your current data protection and backup strategy can effectively defend against cyber attacks and breaches.
A cyber attack is an unauthorized attempt to access a computer device, computer system, or an IT network. The goal of a cyber attack is to disrupt, disable, alter, or take control of the system. In many cases, the data within these systems are stolen, held for ransom, or even deleted.
The most common types of cyber attacks include denial-of-service (DoS), an attack that uses up the resources of a system to the extent that it can no longer respond to genuine server requests.
There’s also phishing, which sends emails from seemingly legitimate and trusted sources with the intent to collect sensitive information from the recipient.
We can’t forget the alarming prevalence of ransomware that targets both large and small companies. A recent, highly publicized ransomware case involved a major pipeline, meat supplier, hospitals, and an IT software company that services over 800 to 1,500 businesses globally. According to NBC News, ransomware costs in 2020 amounted to approximately $1.4 billion in America alone.
How can you protect your business from DoS, phishing, ransomware, and other attempts to steal information? Schedule a consultation and we’ll discuss your options.
The best form of protection is prevention. Zero Trust assumes that nothing behind a corporate firewall is safe until verified, regardless of the source. Although these constraints may seem drastic, today’s workforce’s reliance on computer networks and the massive repercussions of data breaches warrant diligent security as the norm to protect people and their devices.
Three steps must be replicated in all situations in order for Zero Trust protocol to work to keep your data secure.
Always authenticate user identity, location, device health, service or workload, data classification, and anomalies.
Limit user access to only what’s required for their title or position. Just-Enough-Access (JEA) keeps the right data in the right hands.
Limit the ability for hacks to spread laterally by segmenting access by network, user, devices, and application, with verification that each session is encrypted.
