What is cybersecurity ?

Cyber security refers to all aspects of protecting an organization, its people, and its assets from cyber threats. With cyberattacks becoming more common and sophisticated and business networks becoming more complex, it is necessary for various cyber security measures to reduce business cybersecurity risks. 

Mobile security 

Often overlooked, mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones have access to corporate data, exposing businesses to threats from malware, zero-day attacks, phishing and instant messaging. Phone Security prevents these attacks and protects the operating system and device from rooting and jailbreaking. When integrated with a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution, it allows businesses to ensure that only supported mobile devices have access to corporate resources.

 IoT Security

While the use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices provides productivity benefits, it also exposes organizations to new cyber threats. Malicious actors seek out vulnerable devices connected to the Internet unknowingly for malicious purposes, such as a path into a corporate network or another bot in a global bot network.

IoT Security protects these devices through discovery and configuration of connected devices, automatic segmentation to monitor network activity, and using IPS as a virtual patch to prevent exploits against vulnerable IoT devices. In some cases, the tool can be added quickly using a small number of users to prevent harassment and time attacks.

Application security

Web applications, like anything connected to the Internet, are targets for malicious actors. Since 2007, OWASP has analyzed the top 10 threats to web application security vulnerabilities such as injection, broken browsers, misconfigurations, and site scripting, to name a few. With application security, 10 OWASP attacks can be stopped. Application security prevents bot attacks and stops any malicious interactions with applications and APIs. With continuous learning, software will be maintained even when DevOps releases new content.

 

 Zero trust

The traditional security model is perimeter focused, building a wall around an organization's valuable assets like a castle. However, this method presents various problems, including the risk of insider threats and the rapid spread of network networks.

As business assets move out of the home amid cloud adoption and remote working, new approaches to security are needed. Zero Trust takes a more granular approach to security, protecting individual resources through a combination of small parts, monitoring and enforcing role-based access control.
