Why Businesses Should Conduct Regular Cyber Security Strategy Reviews

NYC area cyber security expert, Carl Mazzanti, discusses the wrong kind of wake-up call, attacks prompting cyber security strategy reviews--in a new article from eMazzanti Technologies
HOBOKEN, N.J., May 24, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- NYC area cyber security expert, Carl Mazzanti, President, eMazzanti Technologies, explains why businesses should conduct regular cyber security strategy reviews in a new article on the NJBIZ website. The informative article first relates how Microsoft was recently hacked, asserting that it will eventually happen to every business.
Mazzanti then explains steps business leaders should take to determine how a breach happened. He then recommends regular cyber security strategy reviews to prevent future attacks. He concludes by offering a triangle approach to cyber security, including security controls, security incident event monitoring, and automated response and backup.
"In addition to utilizing the outside expertise of a vetted MSP, a business should ensure that its entire staff undergoes cyber security awareness training," stated Mazzanti. "Training mitigates the tendency to click unknown links or download potentially dangerous files."
Below are a few excerpts from the article, "Why Businesses Should Conduct Regular Cyber Security Strategy Reviews."
"The bad guys are coming. In March, tech giant Microsoft announced that the extortion and destruction threat DEV-0537, also known as LAPSUS$, penetrated one of its accounts. Although only a single account was compromised, "granting limited access," the attack highlights that getting hacked is a matter of when not if."
"One of the first post-hack steps is determining how the cybercriminals got into your system. This involves a cyber-forensic strategy. Sometimes the weakness is obvious--an employee admits that they clicked on a link without authenticating it. Other times, however, the threat may not be as subtle."
"The wake-up call that arrives with a cyber-penetration should motivate a company to review its cybersecurity strategy. Even if the current attack is contained, preventing the next one should be a priority. Reviewing cybersecurity strategies should be done regularly, but many fail to do so."
"A well-organized Managed Services Provider (MSP) or other IT services organization will offer a layered, three-legged "triangle" approach to cybersecurity. The first leg incorporates preventative controls such as keeping software patches up to date, having good antivirus programs, setting up effective firewalls, and using multifactor authentication."
Enterprise-Class Protection for Small Businesses
A hack is never pleasant. But if an organization uses it as a catalyst to improve its cyber-defenses, then at least something useful comes from it. With solutions like Multi-Factor Authentication, Dark Web Monitoring and Free Cyber Security Assessments from eMazzanti Technologies, even small businesses enjoy enterprise-class protection.
