How We Can Help
- Protection Secure Your End-Points. End-points are basically pathways that hackers and other cyber criminals are looking for in order to attack your business. These are also called ‘attack vectors’. Your end-points are the specific hardware, software and other systems that form your overall IT system. For most SMBs, their computers, applications, mobile devices and networking systems (e.g. routers, switches, etc) are end-points.
- Detection These efforts tie into protecting your IT end-points, especially in terms of your networking, internet connectivity and activities on company devices. For example, you’ll need a firewall in place to block internet traffic from malicious and/or high-risk sources. However, that’s just the start. You also need to monitor the health and activities of your company devices, networks and cloud hosts. Additionally, you must aim to detect breaches in your IT system within hours, if not minutes. To achieve that, you need a combination of advanced cybersecurity equipment — e.g. NGFWs — and smart alert systems that will notify you of breaches — which you can then respond to immediately (Cisco).
-
Response You could have a capable cybersecurity system, but it’s only as effective as the processes you have in place to deal with cyber attacks, especially breaches.
For example, to handle a breach you must have a proper disaster recovery strategy. This would generally include keeping backups of your data in the cloud via enterprise-grade data centers. - Recovery In this step, your goal is to restore your business operations and bring things back to normal. For example, in the case of a ransomware attack, your recovery phase would involve finishing the disaster recovery process. If you have a disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS) provider, you’ll contact them to begin restoring your system. However, a proper recovery process is contingent on implementing the Protection, Detection and Response phases of your cybersecurity plan. It’s all interconnected.
