Cyber Security
Cyber security solutions are a set of technologies that use Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) practices to protect your business’ networks and data from attacks.
Why is it Neccessary?
A weak cyber security policy puts the future of your business at serious risk. If your network is breached and your clients’ information falls into the wrong hands, your customers may never trust you again. Also, can your company survive extended periods of down-time needed to recover from a breach? Probably not. And if you think your business is too small to be a target, you’re dead wrong. Cybercriminals work around the clock in search of new ways to exploit networks, knowing small businesses who don’t take security threats seriously are easy targets.
How Digital Science Protects your Network
Before we implement any cyber security solutions, we’ll assess your business’ network to see its weakest links. In order to get an overview of not only your hardware, but also your software and firmware, we do the following:
Asset Discovery
This shows all of the IT assets your business has, both in the cloud and on-premises, and highlights vulnerabilities they have and threats they face.
Vulnerability Scans
These give you instant insight into susceptible parts of your network, allowing you to address them before an attack occurs.
The best way to reduce damage from cyberattacks is to anticipate them, stop them and, in the worst case, have a plan to recover from them as quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. Once we know which cyber security solutions are best for your business through a network assessment, we’ll get them up and running. This includes:
Disaster Recovery & Planning
No business will ever be 100 percent invincible to attacks. You need a plan for disasters. Also, data backup is an absolute must.
Anti-Virus & Web Security
Up-to-date anti-virus and web security software will guard your network from malware attacks by scanning all new files, emails and other network traffic.
Behavior Monitoring
This software gathers data on normal network activity and alerts your IT team whenever anything abnormal occurs, allowing fast response
Before we implement any cyber security solutions, we’ll assess your business’ network to see its weakest links. In order to get an overview of not only your hardware, but also your software and firmware, we do the following:
Patch Management
Since malware attacks are always becoming harder to stop, your cyber security software must change as well. Patch management gives you all new security updates as they’re released in real-time.
Intrusion Prevention System Management (IPS)
An IPS monitors all traffic on your network. This deflects attacks and exploits that hackers can use to gain access to sensitive data.
FireWall
Firewalls have been a first line of defense in network security for over 25 years. They establish a barrier between secured and controlled internal networks that can be trusted and untrusted outside networks, such as the Internet.
