I’ve always known that for businesses large and small, cyber security can be a real challenge. Staying on top of rapidly evolving threats takes a team of vigilant experts.
Managed Cybersecurity and IT services from Armor Coded help manage your businesses risk. Our protections help make your business a smaller target for cyber criminals. We’ll monitor your infrastructure to detect and stop threats and empower your business for rapid recovery when you do get attacked.
There is no point when you can say, “We’re now 100% secure.”
You must be cyber resilient. To achieve cyber resiliency we focus on the cybersecurity lifecycle – the ongoing cycle of interconnected elements which compliment and reinforce one another. With cyber resiliency, you have the ability to prepare for and adapt to changing conditions, so you can withstand and recover rapidly from cyber-related business disruptions.
Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting and recovering computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks, and data from malicious attacks.
Yes, at an alarming rate. There was a 424% increase in authentic and new breaches of small businesses in 2018. Additionally, the techniques being utilized by hackers are becoming increasingly more complex and coordinated.
Two thirds of small businesses surveyed in 2018 reported suffering a cyber attack in the previous 12 months. Small businesses typically have little to no protections in place and are “low hanging fruit” for hackers.
No, in fact by not having cybersecurity protections in place you may be wasting your money on that insurance policy. Most decent cybersecurity policies require that you have preventative measures in place to protect against attacks. If you don’t, they may deny your claims due to negligence. Some of the more basic policies only pay out for the recovery from an attack. If you did not have proper IT in place prior to the breach you may not have anything to recover rendering that policy useless.
This is why a security risk assessment is key. We almost always find some sensitive data (social security numbers, bank account numbers, etc.) when we perform these assessments. Even if you do not have much data that might be sensitive to someone else, it’s probably critical to your business operations. If you arrived at the office one morning to find out that all of your data was gone or encrypted what would that cost your business until you got it back? If you got it back?
Not having cybersecurity can be considerably more expensive. It can even put you out of business. In 2019 cyber attacks cost small businesses an average of 2.2 Million dollars and 60% of small businesses that suffer a cyber attack go out of business within 6 months.
