​Cybersecurity Framework
Technology advancements takes place rapidly. As a business owner, you are responsible in ensuring that your business remains relevant: from your business processes to your operating systems. Are you following a framework that keeps your business in check?
To ensure your business entity is digitally protected, you should take these steps:
-
Back up data regularly: minimize the impact of a cyber attack
-
Update software: up-to-date systems and software are less susceptible to attacks as they are updated with the latest security patches and updates
-
Use 2FAs/ Multi-factor authentication: using OTPs or email authentication adds another security layer from hackers
-
Use firewalls: firewalls monitor network traffic and blocks suspicious connections
-
Use complicated passwords: Use "pass-phrases" to ensure that passwords are not easily cracked
-
Prepare Incident Response plan: consists of instructions to identify, respond and mitigate the effects of a cyber attack
-
User training: educate your employees about cyber threats and how they can identify a suspicious email or site when they see one
-
Use antivirus: antiviruses are built to detect and remove malware, spyware and other malicious software
​
Businesses should implement more than one security to ensure that they are protected. To simply put, firewalls are made to block threats, antiviruses are built to catch or detect threats and last End-point Detection and Response (EDR) software are made to respond to threats.
