Connect Securely

Businesses face several cyber security risks and challenges across a wide range of services and applications including:

Ransomware and Malware

Predicted to cost business c£10 billion in damages Ransomware is one of the biggest problems on the internet. The ransomware payment is only part of the overall impact, with loss of productivity, downtime and the cost of replacement and rebuild all impacting a company’s ability to survive an attack.

End Point Attacks

The increase in remote and home working and use of personal devices has had the impact of creating a greater volume of targets for hackers to pursue. Endpoint attacks are used by cyber criminals to gain access to larger networks. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) technologies are becoming and essential in a company’s defences.

Phishing

Attacks on a business through email compromise remain the most common approach by cyber criminals to gain access to networks, email security with encryption and threat intelligence, remain the smart way to protect employees from these attacks.

ML and AI attacks

Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are being used with increased regularity by cyber criminals to launch attacks, these tools allow attacks to be multiplied and sped up. This is mirrored by cyber security companies and services that use AI and ML to apply intelligence and manage responses and detection

Software Vulnerabilities

When it comes to software and hardware applications or operating systems it is key to ensure robust programs and processes exist for management of patches and security updates. This is something that is often overlooked or poorly controlled leaving businesses and their data exposed to the most basic and common cyber security threats.

These are just some of the examples of cyber threats faced by business, and with a vast array of tools and technologies available from Next Generation Firewalls, Zero Trust solutions, EDR, Anti-Virus Anti-Malware it is difficult for businesses, and certainly those that don’t have vast funds to employ teams of security professionals, to navigate the cyber solution landscape.

Gartner have gone some way to mapping out the key tools and technologies that are available to address the security risks: https://www.gartner.com/en/articles/17-network-security-concepts-and-acronyms-you-need-to-know
