Cyber Security is a core element of business continuity.
Human error is a major factor in data breaches and arises from social engineering attacks. From misaddressed emails to lost devices, mistakes can be common and also costly. Consequently, education and awareness of staff at all levels is paramount and that’s where managed services security can help.
Staff are the first and last line of defence against cyber security attacks. Staff who are up to date on current risks and have been provided with clear instructions on what to do to prevent them are a great company asset. As such, it is very important to get the basics right.
Below you can download our Cyber Security information sheet presents a no-nonsense, practical guide to good cyber practices that can be used by staff to check their behaviours both at work and at home. It incorporates our practical experience gained from working across multiple clients in many different business sectors.
To help you make practical use of this guide, we have formatted it so your staff can use it as a practical checklist, ticking off those elements that they already comply with and helping you to highlight those aspects where work may be required to strengthen controls and awareness.
