ORGANIZATIONS SHOULD FEAR THESE 4 CYBERSECURITY RISKS HACKERCOMBAT


For any organization looking to make a successful digital transformation, cybersecurity must be a top priority—hard stop.


As a result, it has become increasingly important for organizations to take sufficient steps in protecting their systems and the data they hold, including their organizational as well as personal customer data.


LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF TODAY’S MOST MAJOR CYBERSECURITY RISKS AND THINK ABOUT WAYS TO ADDRESS THEM:

Risk One: No clear and comprehensive cybersecurity policy…

This is serious and not to be taken lightly. The absence of a cybersecurity policy can have dire consequences for businesses and their clients.


RISK TWO: NO SECURITY OF IOT DEVICES… IoT devices are everywhere. From homes to major corporations, IoT connects people to their networks and offers convenience in most areas.


RISK THREE: NO WEAPON AGAINST CRYPTOJACKING… The secret installation of cryptocurrency-mining malware onto systems or networks using the existing password and the host computer’s CPU power—a process now fondly known as “cryptojacking”—poses one of the biggest cybersecurity risks of the modern age.


BUT THERE ARE SOME EFFECTIVE METHODS OF PROTECTION: Always be on the lookout for signs of cryptojacking, like slow system performance. Use network-monitoring solutions with AI power to detect cryptojacking attacks by analyzing system/network data. Continually monitor the web server for any kind of file changes.


Risk Four: No patch management to handle organizational threats‌

Everyone knows that patch management is critical to a strong security posture. But for it to be truly effective, it has to be fully complete and without holes or neglected areas.
