According to Sage Group, 48% of SMBs have experienced a cyberattack. Yet 43% have challenges understanding what security is required. That's why it's crucial to protect your business with Managed Cybersecurity
As the CEO of our growing SMB, it’s essential to have a solid understanding of our IT environment. Technology is a critical role in your operations, efficiency, and overall success. When it comes to Cybersecurity, here are some key points to consider:
• Basic Safeguards: Implement essential cybersecurity measures, such as firewalls, antivirus software, and regular system updates. Educate employees about phishing and security best practices.
• Managed Detection and Response (MDR): Consider outsourcing MDR services. MDR providers monitor our systems for threats, respond to incidents, and provide real-time protection.
• Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR): EDR tools detect and respond to threats at the endpoint level (e.g., individual devices). They enhance our security posture.
• Penetration Testing (Pretesting): Regular pretesting helps identify vulnerabilities before attackers do. It’s an investment in proactive security.
• Scalability and Future-Proofing:
• As we grow, our IT infrastructure must scale seamlessly. Consider cloud solutions, virtualization, and flexible licensing models.
• Plan for future needs. Anticipate changes in user numbers, data storage, and application requirements.
Plus, cybersecurity solutions must comply with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. This framework was created by the National Institute of Standards and Technology to mitigate cybersecurity risks.
Don't wait for cyber threats to strike. Make sure you have a proactive cybersecurity defense today
