Why cyber security is essential

The cost of a cyber-attack can be phenomenal, and a lot of businesses don’t appreciate the true value of investing in protection.

Data has become one of the most valuable assets of any business. It can help you understand your customers, improve your products, and optimise your operations. However, cyberattacks, data breaches, and human errors can compromise your data and expose your business to legal, financial, and reputational damage.

It’s essential that you take data security seriously and implement the best practices to protect yourself from human error, unauthorised access, theft or loss.

An experienced MSP like TechWyse can help you boost your data security, check for vulnerabilities and assist business to achieve Cyber Essentials certification. Allowing you to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your data is safe and secure.

What is antivirus?

Antivirus is a piece of software installed on your device that is designed to detect and destroy and viruses it finds. All devices should have some form of antivirus installed.

Do I need antivirus?

Yes, antivirus is an important layer of security that should not be overlooked. Antivirus software works by not only detecting and removing viruses, but securing your data against all different types of attacks.

What is adware?

Adware is a type of software that has the ability to display advertisements on your computer. Adware watches as you surf the Internet to collect information about your behaviour. It logs your online activities and personal information to create a user profile and sends it to a data collection site.

What is ransomware?

Ransomware is a type of software designed to prevent you from accessing your files and applications until a request is fulfilled. This is typically a payment to the attacker.

What is encryption?

Encryption is a technique where data is encoded when it is stored so that it cannot be read without the use of a password/encryption key. This helps to protect the data from unauthorized, malicious or accidental access.

What is a secure password?

There are many different examples of a secure password, but as a minimum, we suggest having a combination of numbers, letters and symbols and a minimum password length of 8. You should create a new password for every online account you use.

We recommend having a password manager support you with this.

How do I know if I have been hacked?

Unfortunately, cyber threats are common, and it isn’t always obvious that your cyber security has been compromised. However here are some common signs.

You have been contacted by your IT provider detailing the breach.
You are unable to log in to your account.
Your computer starts opening unknown programmes
Emails being sent from your account that you didn’t send.
Social media posts on your accounts that you did not create.
Appearance of popup windows.
Your computer has slowed significantly and isn’t as fast as usual.

What is disaster recovery?

Disaster recovery is a form of IT planning to ensure security measures are in place should a natural disaster, hardware malfunction or user error occur. The key is to have a plan in place to deal with any issues that occur. This could include cloud backups to ensure a copy of all your data is stored off-site.
