According to statics, over 90% of all businesses in the United States have suffered at least one cyber attack in the past year. Most of these intrusions were not detected until it was too late. By the time it was detected all the damage had already been done – the loss of huge volumes of sensitive information. In many instances, the people responsible were never apprehended as the trail had gone cold due to the delay in identification of the breach.<\/p>\n
The biggest blow of all to businesses that have been affected has come in the form of loss in revenue. Statistics show that close to 46% of customers don\u2019t want to continue doing business with a company that has had a data breach.<\/p>\n
This is the harsh reality of this information age where all businesses across all industries have to rely on IT systems that are susceptible to data breaches. We have no control over stopping the data breach attempts but what we can control is how can they be prevented from causing any damage or reducing the damage caused by them. The old adage \u2018an ounce of prevention\u2019 does not stand strong in this case. There must be other proactive damage control systems in place. With statistics like the ones mentioned above, the odds of getting attacked in today’s business network is extremely high.<\/p>\n
Cybercriminals are a determined bunch who are always looking for a way in. Thinking that the basic preventive measures are all that are needed to safeguard a business is foolish on the part of the business owners. Nothing can stop a determined hacker. It does not matter if you have firewalls or other stringent preventive measures or policies in place to keep hackers out, a determined hacker will eventually overcome any preventive measures you may have in place and gain access to the sensitive information of a business.<\/p>\n
Due to the increased threat of data breaches, businesses today are adding SIEM (Security Information Event Management). This is a software that is designed to monitor and log all events that happen on a network. There are various software systems that performs this function with varying degrees of efficiency. These systems are designed to identify any break-in that occurs and notify the respective people immediately. The only thing worse than having a data breach is getting to know about it well after it has been done – when the trail has gone completely cold. If you get notified when the breach is happening then you can minimize the damage caused by the breach by patching up any vulnerabilities. For these reasons, SIEM systems are essential in combating data-breach.<\/p>\n
These cybercriminals are constantly looking for ways to overcome security measures that are keeping them from getting access to sensitive information. There has been a new development in the recent past where these hackers have been able to evade the SIEM systems of some companies and gain access to their vital data without being detected. This brings us to the question as to what can be done to completely protect a system from any breaches? Well, there is no way to ensure that a business is completely safe from any breaches. To provide the best chances of not being breached, a business must provide this crucial aspect of maintaining network security<\/a> to a reputed managed service provider who will use proactive detecting tools to stop attempted threats better than anyone else in the market.<\/p>\n IT Support in Manhattan<\/a> or Manhattan IT Support provide exceptional services.
