No Catch. No Obligation.
Just week after week of timely tips to keep you one step ahead of hackers.
Your strategy could (and should!) include:
1- Determine how much data can you afford to lose. For some companies this might be “0” some companies could potentially afford to ‘reset’ back a week or even a month ago. This is probably the KEY ELEMENT in determining your cybersecurity plan. It sounds pessimistic, but it drives the rest of your decision making.
2-Regular Pen tests
3-Employing the use of Certified Ethical Hackers (known as CEH) to find issues in your applications
4- Strict data governance standards
5-Data Access Controls
6-Network Monitoring
7-Disaster Recovery plan that includes a time to restore that fits your business plan (should TTR be 1 minute, or is 6 hours ok?)
8-Constant affirmation that business critical data is backed up successfully and is actually restorable (including database corruption tests)
9-Regular training for ALL staff starting when first onboarded and retrained at LEAST yearly.
