Let's talk about setting up a STRONG Cybersecurity Plan for 2020
Creating a comprehensive cybersecurity plan is a vital part of your cybersecurity defenses, regardless of your company's size or nature of business.
Formulating and following a simple cybersecurity plan is the best first step you can take to protecting your investments. It's one of those can't-miss business essentials you don't want to do without.
Something that far too many SMEs don't bother with, yet takes only a few hours to draft.
Step One?
➡️ Creating a simple sample cybersecurity plan
The initial draft of your company's security plan doesn't have to be excessively extravagant nor has to be a hundred pages full of fine detail. It only needs to outline the threats that you will face, establish a sensible set of common-sense policies, and assign responsibilities for taking action by concerned parties.
The best plans may appear simple, yet dynamic enough to match the systems in need of protection. All stakeholders should note the policies that are working and those in need of revision or even discarding. As a company, it's all about exerting your efforts together and formalizing the knowledge you need to empower your IT security and its layers of defense.
Do you have a cybersecurity plan in place?

We look at several attacks on K-12 schools and a foiled targeted attacked on a Tesla employee (with help from the FBI).

HOW CAN YOU PROTECT YOUR COMPANY FROM RANSOMWARE?
STEP ONE:
UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR MOST IMPORTANT DATA IS AND CREATE AN EFFECTIVE BACKUP STRATEGY
Having secure and up-to-date backups of all business-critical information is CRUCIAL to your cybersecurity plan. In the event that ransomware does compromise some devices, having a recent backup means you can restore that data and be operational again fast. But are you backing up the RIGHT information to get back online?
