The list of large companies being hit is long. Small businesses are equally vulnerable to security hackers and may be less resilient. To say that security is a top business concern seems unnecessary. Most companies understand that security is not something to be taken lightly. In a recent CompTIA survey, 74 percent of business leaders said that security is a higher priority today than it was two years ago. Eighty-five percent of firms surveyed reported that IT security will have an even higher priority two years from now.<\/p>\n<h2>Network Security Versus Human Error<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone agrees that security is important. Malware and hacking are still the major concerns. Human error has become one of the most recent threats. This is a growing concerns that needs attention. To combat human error, significant education and training of employees is needed. Mitigation strategies for all businesses, whether large or small, are of the utmost importance. With new models of security, there are new loopholes to exploit; with greater technology reliance, there is a greater potential for disruption. Add in escalating privacy concerns and critical regulatory concerns, and it is easy to see how security is becoming much broader than firewalls and anti-virus software.<\/p>\n<h2>Security Policies and Procedures<\/h2>\n<p>It is important for your business to establish clear procedures on notification and escalation of a data leak or data breach. Ensure that your team knows how to escalate a concern within the company. It is more important to raise the issues quickly rather than cover up a security breach. Your business must have clear policies on how to coordinate notifications outside of your company, should an attack occur.<\/p>\n<h2>Security Assessment<\/h2>\n<p>Remember, your network is only as secure as its weakest link, so it is important to take precautions to protect your company from security threats. If your company has not recently reviewed how to handle security threats, now is the time. Consider contacting a security expert or cloud computing professional to review and assess your security policies today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everyday there are reports of businesses being targeted with security attacks.
