Building a business requires commitment and determination. It’s a hard work!
You start each day with a schedule for delivering your products or services, acquiring new customers and retaining the existing ones because your business needs to prosper. It’s a sure thing!
Cash is king and so is data!
No business can prosper on air and data usually doesn’t come from nowhere. It’s your hard work of collecting the personal information from your existing and potential customers, suppliers, employees, partners etc. You keep the information with their names, addresses, bank account information, buying patterns, preferences etc so that you can use this information to grow your brand.
But you are not the only party interested in this data! Data is what the threat actors are after too.
This is their business.
Take responsibility!
Responsible business owners don’t ask why cyber security is important. Sensible business owners look for the techniques and tools to deliver great cyber security, and as it is a highly specialised context, today’s business owners increasingly reach out for the help from experienced and reputable cyber security consultants.
Data safety is everyone responsibility. Clive Catton, Consultant in Cyber Security said: “Everyone in any organisation has a role to play in the cyber security planning and implementation for that organisation, so cyber security training has to be part of the security framework the organisation creates. For this framework to be effective, it has to cover the basics of cyber security planning and the training has to equip each member of the team with the knowledge they need to carry out their part in your cyber security plan.
Cyber Security is about:
- Training – 90% of cyber attack are affected by human actions! Train your staff.
- People – IT and Cyber Security expertise when you need it.
- Policies and Procedures, Cyber Security Framework, Incident Response and Business Continuity Plan – your people need to know what is expected of them.
- Tools – here is our recommended security stack your business needs:
· Remote Management and Monitoring – know what is going on, manage those vital updates, defend against the insider threat
· Anti-virus and Advanced Threat Protection – defend your devices and information, protect your cloud, wipe compromised smartphones
· Backup – the essential business continuity tool, your business’s last defence against ransomware, a data recovery solution for deleted files and failed hardware
