However, not all businesses know how to set up their defences correctly or the security risks to look out for. That’s problematic.
Businesses need cyber security strategies, processes and personnel to deter bad actors from compromising their systems. And they need them running constantly.
There’s no end to the increasing threats you face – attested to by the spate of high-profile ransomware or cyberattack cases. If businesses don’t have the resources, skills, or knowledge to address them, it’s only a matter of time before they fall victim to hackers.
Businesses need to take preventive measures against ransomware attacks. That’s where a cyber security risk management process comes in.
Given the latest cloud-based services and trend toward hybrid working, both significantly increase the number of attack surfaces to be managed and monitored.
The last factor to consider is the rise of compliance, and the need to adhere to data protection and data privacy regulations. These add an administration layer to your business operations that many organisations struggle with.
If hackers successfully launch a ransomware attack against an organisation, it can significantly impact company operations, customer satisfaction and brand reputation. It’ll also affect its share price and/or valuation. The brand itself will fall under intense scrutiny from the public.
One source indicates that 60% of businesses fail within six months after falling victim to cyberattacks.
There’s another problem. If a business uses cloud-based services that aren’t as secure as they should be, it would be forced to reconsider their digital strategy. That could mean having to postpone services that rely on these cloud apps.
Non-compliance with cyber security regulations can lead to financial penalties or other restrictions. In addition, they’ll run the risk of being excluded from tenders and further harm their brand reputation.
So, there really is a need to have a cyber security risk assessment plan. It’s the only way organisations can prevent all the security risks they might face.
The best way to do that is to have experts in cyber risk management conduct risk assessments to ensure everything is in order.
