Cover Your Security Bases with These Four Best Practices

Cover Your Security Bases with These Four Best Practices

Over 25 percent of data breaches target small businesses, and the impact can be huge. To protect your business, you need the right technology and smart strategies. In today’s blog, we go through some key steps to help safeguard your business from digital threats.

Use Security Software

You’ll want to invest in security tools like firewalls, antivirus programs, and encryption. Keeping these updated can stop most threats before they reach your systems. With strong protection, you can feel confident your data is safe.

Backup Your Data 

Make sure you have a reliable data backup plan. Obviously, losing important information can disrupt your business, so do what you can to protect it from loss. Our Backup and Disaster Recovery (BDR) solution can automatically back up your data frequently and store it in the cloud, so you can recover it easily if needed.

Create a Security Plan 

Choose the right security options for your business to avoid wasting money. Don’t forget about physical security too—cameras, access control systems, and smart devices can protect both your office and your data.

Train Your Employees 

Make sure all staff are trained on security practices, including:

  • Phishing - Teach them to recognize fake emails or scams.
  • Password management - Encourage the creation and secure storage of strong,  unique passwords.
  • Physical security - Show them how to keep the workplace safe using the security tools you’ve provided.

Regardless of how you go about it, well-trained employees will help reduce mistakes and keep your business safer.

Test Your Security 

One undeniably resourceful way to protect your whole business is to regularly test your security. After you set up security resources, you’ll always want to regularly test them to ensure they're working as expected, especially after any updates.

If you need help, CIT Solutions can assist with keeping your network secure. Call us today at (972) 236-4690 to learn more.
