Keeping your business secure
You rely on technology to run your business. God be with you when the technology you need so much works against you.Even greater the travesty when an employee uses technology against you.
Technology is fantastic, I love working with and configuring technology. You are very aware of outside attacks coming from hackers, malware, viruses and so on. Are you aware of the internal threat in your organization? Weather blatant or by mistake employees can cause huge security issues for your company. It can be easy access to company funds or accidentally installing a piece of malware that will steal the password to your online banking.
These are all things that you must think through and create plans and policies to make sure you are protected.
What are some action items to be sure your technology works for you not against you?
- Train employees in security principles
- Protect information, computers, and networks from cyber attacks
- Provide firewall security for your Internet connection
- Create a mobile device action plan
- Make backup copies of important business data and information
- Control physical access to your computers and create user accounts for each employee
- Secure your Wi-Fi networks
- Employ best practices on payment cards
- Limit employee access to data and information, limit authority to install software
- Changing passwords and verifying authentication
These are 10 very practical starting points for you to consider for your business. If you have not considered any of these you need to today.
