Do you have confidence in your cyber security posture?
According to a Small Business Administration survey, 88% of small business owners perceive their organisations are exposed to a cyber-attack. Many SMBs cannot afford professional cyber security solutions or do not know where to start. Fortunately, there are many ways in which you can improve your security posture. Galtec are pleased to boast a comprehensive array of security partners and associated resources designed to help you create an end-to-end cyber security plan.
What is security posture?
An organisation's security posture accommodates its networks, information security, network security, data security and internet security, as well as penetration testing, vendor risk management, vulnerability management, data breach prevention, security awareness training for employees to prevent social engineering attacks and other security controls. If you care about your organisation and the information it holds, you will want to do whatever you can to improve your IT infrastructure and strengthen your security posture. One of the first steps of the journey is to consider a security assessment.
Why is security posture assessment so important?
A security posture assessment helps your organisation design and develop an appropriate cyber security roadmap in line with continuity planning and overall security program. In addition, security posture assessments give organisations an overall view of their internal and external security status by combining all the aspects of their cyber security practices into one comprehensive evaluation.
Security posture assessments help organisations evaluate and improve their security postures in the following ways:
1. Identifying and managing the value of the organisation’s data
3. Evaluating if the organisation has appropriate, reliable and efficient security measures in place
2. Defining the threat exposure and cyber-risks of the organisation’s data
4. Recommending a concrete action plan (cyber security roadmap) to help the organisation better control its risk exposures and strengthen the cyber security posture
Cyber hygiene and email security
The popularity of collaboration platforms, such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom, raised rapidly during the pandemic and became an inseparable part of today’s workplace. A greater number of organisations still rely on email as their primary method of communication. According to the Data Breach Investigations Report, email remains a popular attack vector for cyber criminals who exploit it to access corporate networks and data. Organisation leaders must understand the importance of comprehensive email security protocols and policies to keep corporate messages secure.
