Cybersecurity is a broad term that includes data protection and the technology systems responsible for moving, storing and authenticating data. For businesses, cybersecurity encompasses the technology that exists to help keep your business secure, the people and processes that ensure your business stays secure, and the education to ensure your employees remain vigilant against potential cyber threats.
A smart cybersecurity solution incorporates multiple layers of technology, processes and education to help keep your business safe. Think of it like stacking numerous layers of Swiss cheese on top of each other.
You may think that large companies with more terminals are more vulnerable than small companies. Or, companies with attractive data, such as financial services companies or those in the healthcare industry, would be easy targets. That’s not always the case, of course, they have an incredible amount of data, but it’s like trying to rob a bank’s gold vault rather than robbing a private individual. Larger companies or those that handle sensitive data usually have the technology, regulations, and processes in place to protect themselves from cyber attacks.
On the other hand, small and medium-sized businesses without dedicated IT expertise, cybersecurity technology, processes, or education are easier targets for hackers.
One of the biggest challenges facing businesses today is staying informed when it comes to cybersecurity and staying on top of evolving cyber threats.
In most cases, the answer is simply no.
Cybersecurity requires constant education, enterprise-wide processes and executive-level commitment. Overall, there needs to be more awareness about how quickly hackers can initiate a cyber attack, how quickly cyber attacks evolve, and how companies need multiple layers of cybersecurity to protect themselves, especially in modern work environments where employees work remotely and share a ton of important information.
Ransomware is one of our biggest concerns: it is a specific type of cyber attack in which hackers deploy malware and then force you to pay a ransom to regain access to your system. Learn more about ransomware below.
We are also always concerned about monitoring and preventing phishing takeover attacks on the side. Through this type of cyber attack, hackers gain access to an employee’s email account. They then set up rules to extract valuable information and data. Once hackers find information they can exploit, they use it to create a genuine-looking email for everyone in the employee’s address book.
Common examples of computer viruses include resident viruses, multipartite viruses, direct actions, browser hijackers, overwrite viruses, web script viruses, file injectors, network viruses and boot sector viruses.
Malware, short for malicious software, is a program or file that is intentionally harmful to your computer, network or website. These types of cyber threats infect your system to collect sensitive data, disrupt operations or spy on your digital activity.
Common examples of malware include viruses, ransomware, Trojans, spyware, keyloggers and worms.
Ransomware is a specific type of cyber attack in which the attacker forces you to pay a ransom fee to regain access to your system or data on your hard drive. Common types of ransomware attacks include scareware, lockscreen ransomware and encryption ransomware.
Here we describe everything you need to know about ransomware, including how to protect yourself from ransomware attacks and what to do if you become a victim of ransomware.
Cybersecurity is not a one-size-fits-all product. Businesses must take a layered approach to cybersecurity for defense, monitoring and remediation.
The specific solution you need for your business will be a combination of firewalls, email security, antivirus, patching, VPN connections, endpoint protection, multi-factor authentication, user education and security training (SAT), endpoint detection and response (EDR), information security and event management (SIEM), and data backup.
It all comes down to education, processes and technology. Companies need to invest in educating employees on cybersecurity best practices. In addition, companies need to effectively secure the data entrusted to them.
Your organization should have a cyber-attack remediation process in place. If you are unsure, contact us; it could save your company money and your reputation if a cyber attack occurs.
