5 Security Measures You Should Keep In Mind for Your Business

5 Security Measures You Should Keep In Mind for Your Business

How much do you know about your business’ security infrastructure? With advanced cyberthreats breathing down everyone’s neck, it’s no wonder that more companies than ever before are investing in advanced security measures. Here are some of the critical components you’ll need to consider to keep your business safe.

Identity Authentication

Your security solutions need to have complex and advanced ways to guarantee identity authenticity for your network assets. One of the best ways to do this is through multi-factor authentication. MFA requires your employees to use multiple measures to verify their identity, like text codes, phone calls, or even biometrics, allowing for a secondary level of security for any accounts or data.

Access Control

Similarly, you need to have measures in place to guard against unauthorized access to data. Nobody within your business should have access to everything; instead, they should only have access to the data they need to perform their jobs. You can also take this one step further by implementing zero-trust policies, which require your team to verify their identities at every turn, ensuring that your data remains as safe as possible.

Endpoint Security

Every device that accesses your company’s network, wired or wireless, in-house or remote, needs to be protected, period. We recommend you do this with a unified threat management tool, which includes firewalls, antivirus, spam blocking, and content filtering solutions. This gives your business a comprehensive tool that can handle most threats.

Security Awareness

What would a hacker do if your business is too well-protected? They use your team against you and deceive your employees into disclosing sensitive information. This is why security training is so important; with a full training protocol in place for your employees, you can reinforce best practices and test their knowledge in a safe and controlled environment so they’re prepared for the real deal.

Detection and Response

Your business needs a way to monitor and address security threats in real-time, period. How are you supposed to address security threats on your network if you don’t know they are there? Remote monitoring tools like the ones we use at Direct Technology Group let businesses take action to isolate and eliminate threats before too much damage has been dealt.
