What to Consider When Planning for IT Security
IT security can provide your company with peace of mind when it comes to protecting data and important information. Natural disasters, malicious threats and human error are all events that can cause harm to networks, systems and devices. The best way to combat threats is to have an IT security plan for your business.
Natural Disasters
Natural disasters can wreak havoc on more than just your office building. Earthquakes, floods and hurricanes can interfere with your data center, interrupt operations and potentially cause you to lose data. To prevent losing your important files and information or having your production interrupted, it’s essential to be prepared.
Power regulating software, generators and uninterruptible power systems (UPS) can maintain power supply when power outages occur due to storms or other disasters. It’s also crucial to have a plan in place to transport your essential data on a hard drive. Having an effective IT security strategy can help you to safely protect and transport data.
Malicious Threats
Cyber attackers use means such as emails and websites to host viruses, phishing scams, malware, exploits and other threats. These threats can harm systems, networks and devices. Examples of malicious threats include worms, botnets, download attacks, ransomware and other harmful network breaches. Cyber attackers can use these breaches to view and steal information or control systems. An IT security strategy can block these threats from harming your system.
Human Error
Insider threats occur when people who have authorized access to a company’s network misuse their access, whether intentionally or unintentionally. These types of threats most often occur when employees are careless or ignore their company’s policies. Examples of human errors that can present threats to data include sharing login information, clicking on phishing links and emailing data to external parties. Employee monitoring programs such as Business Process Automation software can prevent insider threats from occurring.
