More and more businesses are shifting to a full- or part-time home working. At the same time ransomware attacks, phishing attempts, data breaches, and dark web leaks are becoming more prevalent. That’s why it is more important than ever to have full visibility and control over what company data is being accessed, by who, and where from.
At Carden IT Services, we have recently added to our ever-growing collection of accreditations by becoming ISO 27001 compliant.
Unlike our previously gained ISO 9001 accreditation which focused primarily on quality and consistency of service, ISO 27001 focuses on information security.
The dark web – the place where cyber-criminals conduct their business anonymously. Some parts of the dark web hold the results of the data breaches of many of the websites that you used or even still use today. This data can be names, date of births, addresses, booking information, and worst of all (but not unlikely) credit card information and passwords.
Conducting a regular dark web scan is recommended. If you have conducted a scan and found that your email addresses and passwords are available on the dark web, you need to act immediately. Here are our recommendations on how to proceed from here.
The problem
Although we are all used to hearing that cyber-crime is increasing, there is no real understanding of just how significantly it is rising unless you are an IT technician or are unlucky enough to be its victim. These same IT technicians and victims also understand the damage that is caused by a cyber breach. If you find your IT team are putting pressure on you to be more cyber aware and invest in cybersecurity, you should thank them for being proactive!
Carden IT Services are here to let you know of the potential dangers in the cyber landscape and how to protect yourself against them. It is up to you to choose the level of protection for your business and our packages have been built to give you a choice of different protection levels. We present, you choose, we deliver.
