News Flash: Hope Isn’t a Cybersecurity Strategy

Hope can be enough to keep you moving forward, even when the world feels heavy and dark. While it’s good to keep hope in your heart as a light to help you push onward, it’s not a very good cybersecurity strategy. Hope won’t stop a data breach, a ransomware attack, or a phishing scam, and it certainly won’t keep you safe when cybercriminals only need one slip-up from anyone in your office to ruin your day.

The best way to combat the threat of cybersecurity threats is to implement a proactive, intelligent, and robust cybersecurity strategy—and Horne & Benik is going to show you how it’s done.

Start with Cybersecurity Audits

First, we’ll take a closer look at your systems to see what vulnerabilities exist before hackers take advantage of them. After all, the average time to identify and contain a data breach is 204 days, and a lot of damage can be done in that timeframe.

Train Your Team

Your employees are on the front lines in this fight against cybercriminals, and they should receive practical and engaging training to help them spot and avoid phishing attempts and suspicious activity, as well as know what to do if they encounter it. We can help provide this training.

Implement Advanced Threat Detection and Response

We use the most advanced tools available to discover and neutralize threats on your network in real time. We’ll go above and beyond the typical antivirus software with our comprehensive suite of solutions designed to stay ahead of developing threats.

Consider AI

AI is a powerful resource that can be leveraged for your IT infrastructure in innovative ways, such as predictive threat analysis. We’ll ensure you receive comprehensive support that not only resolves problems, but prevents them entirely.

Prepare an Incident Response Strategy

Even with all of these measures in place, it’s always possible that something can happen, which is why we help you build out a clear and actionable plan for what should happen if you suffer a cyberattack. This minimizes the damage that the event can cause and helps you recover faster.

If your business is concerned about cybersecurity, that’s good; you should be. But you don’t need to be paralyzed with fear—not when you have Horne & Benik you can rely on. To learn more about how your business can keep itself safe, contact us at (603) 499-4400.
