Managed Security via firewall care
The world is a dangerous place. Criminal syndicates, foreign governments, and political groups are all prowling the internet looking for a chance to steal your data, deface your website, and cause other havoc. Tavtech specializes in network security, which is keeping the enemy at the perimeter, away from your sensitive business data.
Managed Security
Welcome to the brave new world of the Information Age. Information is king and there are entities out there that are willing to do whatever it takes to get it. Criminal syndicates, mafias, and one-man operations make millions each year; some by stealing credit card information, others by holding your data ransom, only to be released back at a price, or some by simply selling the information to interested parties. Foreign governments, such as China and Russia, are on the move and putting the full force of the state behind the theft of business and government information. Politcal activists, like the online group Anonymous, are defacing websites and embarrassing those who oppose them.
Big companies and small companies alike are the targets. Hard to believe? Much of the time, an attacker isn’t choosing a name and then attacking, they are choosing a particular weakness, and then attacking those who have that weakness. Most hackers have a continuous scan of the internet in place, like a radar, that notifies them when a weakness is found they can exploit; it doesn’t matter if it’s a Fortune 500 company or a mom and pop shop, it’s a weakness and they will attack. In fact, 662 organizations of all sizes were hacked last year, and those are just the reported cases.
Usually these attacks are the end of a company. There is financial loss from lawsuits or fines. There are also non-monetary losses like public embarrassment and customer distrust.
Fortunately, you don’t have to turn your business into Fort Knox to deal with these attacks. Just some basic changes at your company can prevent the majority of problems. We know that here at Tavtech, and we can help you implement the level of security you need based the value of your data.
The principal method Tavtech uses to stop attacks is a network firewall. Keeping the enemy at the perimeter is the most cost-effective method of defense. It closes the many holes through which a hacker could strike.
