CYBERSECURITY
What is the big CYBER deal?
The words “IT” and “Cybersecurity” have become widely used terms in business and personal life over the past few years. In the past you could hire a “guy/gal who knows Technology” – and trust them to run your network, reset passwords, and fix any ‘out-of-memory issues’ that might arise. As a business owner that worked …then.
While some business owners still operate that way, today – it is critical to form a partnership with a proactive IT firm that delivers cybersecurity management and risk mitigation solutions. Times have changed and your internal resources cannot be expected to stay educated on the ever-growing number of threats to you and your organization. That’s where Proxurve Solutions can add value and expertise.
Key points to consider:
- Over 85% of breaches are caused by end-user/staff error; by clicking on links or opening phishing emails
- Proactively filtering SPAM email significantly drives down possible threats
- User education is required to raise awareness and to provide life skills to staff
- 6-9 months is the average time a threat has been in your network before it is detected
Cybersecurity is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’, it is a cost of doing business. If your business is penetrated by a cybercriminal, the impact on your business is monumental and the average cost of remediation starts at $250,000. That number does not include the loss of revenue or reputation impact which can be long lasting and painful.
At Proxurve, we believe in leveraging technology to protect people, their assets and reputations that have been built over many years of business experience. We understand the importance of cybersecurity, how to make it simple and cost effective while minimizing risk.
We consistently talk to business owners who have been told (by their internal or external IT resource) that their business is ‘covered’, only to find that they have major cyber security gaps. Our Executive Leadership Conversations (ELC) are a great way to have a leadership level, non-technical conversation to better understand possible exposure points for you and your business. Check out the video on the “Our Approach” tab (link goes here) for more details on that experience.
The Proxurve Cybersecurity Six-Layered Approach
Staff Security Training
This involves educating employees on how to identify and avoid potential security risks, such as phishing scams, social engineering attacks, and malware infections. Regular training sessions can help promote a security-conscious culture within an organization.
Edge/Firewall Security
Implementing security measures at the network perimeter prevents unauthorized access and blocks malicious traffic. Firewalls filter incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predefined rules and policies, providing a first line of defense against cyber threats.
Network Security
Our network security solution includes firewall management, intrusion detection & prevention, vulnerability & penetration testing, and network segmentation. We use the latest technology and industry best practices to secure your network from both external and internal threats.
Endpoint Security
We provide endpoint security solutions to protect your endpoints, including desktops, laptops, mobile devices, and servers. Our endpoint security solutions include anti-virus (traditional) and Next-Gen) malware protection, patch management, and endpoint encryption.
Application Security
This involves securing the software applications that are used within an organization. This can involve implementing secure coding practices, performing regular vulnerability assessments, and conducting penetration testing to identify potential weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
Data Security
This involves protecting the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data. This can involve implementing access controls, encryption, and backup and recovery strategies to ensure that data is protected against unauthorized access, loss, or corruption.
Our Professional Services deliver a multi-layered approach, designed to be cost-effective, efficient, and secure.
We are engaged by companies looking to proactively secure their futures through the adoption of the following Cybersecurity protocols:
