Why is Managed Cybersecurity Important?

According to Sage Group, 48% of SMBs have experienced a cyberattack. Yet 43% have challenges understanding what security is required. That's why it's crucial to protect your business with Managed Cybersecurity

 

As the CEO of our growing SMB, it’s essential to have a solid understanding of our IT environment. Technology plays a critical role in our operations, efficiency, and overall success. When it comes to Cybersecurity, here are some key points to consider:

  • Basic Safeguards: Implement essential cybersecurity measures, such as firewalls, antivirus software, and regular system updates. Educate employees about phishing and security best practices.
  • Managed Detection and Response (MDR): Consider outsourcing MDR services. MDR providers monitor our systems for threats, respond to incidents, and provide real-time protection.
  • Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR): EDR tools detect and respond to threats at the endpoint level (e.g., individual devices). They enhance our security posture.
  • Penetration Testing (Pretesting): Regular pretesting helps identify vulnerabilities before attackers do. It’s an investment in proactive security.
  • Scalability and Future-Proofing:
  • As we grow, our IT infrastructure must scale seamlessly. Consider cloud solutions, virtualization, and flexible licensing models.
  • Plan for future needs. Anticipate changes in user numbers, data storage, and application requirements.

Plus, cybersecurity solutions must comply with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, a framework created by the National Institute of Standards and Technology to mitigate cybersecurity risks.

Don't wait for cyber threats to strike. Make sure you have a proactive cybersecurity defense today
