Cybersecurity is a topic near and dear to most business owners’ hearts. You might not specialize in securing your infrastructure, but it’s still a vital factor that cannot be ignored. Today, we want to cover how you can make cybersecurity as easy as possible for your team so they don’t accidentally put your business at risk.
Ideally, a business owner should be able to focus entirely on growth and operations without worrying about digital threats. However, cybersecurity is a fundamental pillar of business continuity. Ignoring your network defenses doesn't just invite risk, it invites catastrophe.
Unless they run a technology company, business owners shouldn’t have to give much thought to their network protection. They have much more critical things to spend their focused time on. Unfortunately for them, cybersecurity is extremely important, so having an ongoing strategy to consistently upgrade your network defenses is something most businesses should consider. Today, we thought we’d go through six reasons you need to take network security seriously.
Let’s imagine that your business has a hidden back door—one that your building manager doesn’t even know exists—and that door leads straight into the heart of your office. By the time someone finds out that door exists, someone could have snuck in to wreak all kinds of havoc, unbeknownst to you. This is what is known as a zero-day threat; it’s a security vulnerability that is being actively exploited in the wild, one that was previously unknown to the vendor and unpatched against, and it’s a serious problem for any SMB.
When considering the strengths of shapes, the triangle is generally considered the strongest, its three vertices creating the optimally stable configuration. The same can be said of your business’ approach to cybersecurity. The difference is that, instead of three equal legs working together to support whoever is seated on a stool, your business’ cybersecurity relies on equal investment in three key areas: your people, your processes, and your technology.
Let’s talk about how this holistic approach puts your business in the best position to stay secure, and where many organizations fall short.
