Cyber Security for Your Business
Does this Sound familiar?
You need security services for peace of mind or compliance. Your company has little day to day IT support needs, but can’t risk a data breach. Your main apps are cloud based.
If so, call us to find out how easy it is to get your company the peace of mind you deserve.
Here are some compelling reasons to consider cybersecurity measures:
It’s hard to believe, but over 61% of small to medium sized businesses experienced a Cyberattack last year. What’s worse is data breaches cost small businesses nearly $3 million per incident. Don’t let your company become a statistic. Work with us to make cybersecurity easy. Partner with Waterloo to ensure your business and customers are safe.
Your Business is Their Main Target
Small businesses are the target of 43% of all data breaches. Of those breached, 60% of small businesses go out of business within 6 months of the Cyberattack.
The Cost is Devastating
- Besides a diminished customer base and bad brand reputation security breaches are costly at any size. Below are the raw numbers:
- Small companies lost an average of $24,000 each in 2020
- Medium-sized companies lost an average of $50,000 each in 2020
- Large companies lost an average of $504,000 each in 2020 companies.
Most Business Owners are Vulnerable and Have No Plan
Most business owners know they are target, yet, paying for professional IT service or trying to figure it out themselves seems out of reach. This creates a paralysis, leaving them to do nothing. A recent survey showed 88% of small business owners feel vulnerable to an attack.
The Threats are All Around
With 63% of small business workforce now working remotely, small businesses believe they are more vulnerable to cyber attacks. Some of the more common attacks include:
- Phishing – Attackers trick legitimate users into taking action to open the door for unauthorized users
- Password related account compromises – Unauthorized users deploy software or other hacking techniques to identify your employees common and reused passwords to gain access to your systems and data
- Internal Access – Employees have access to information that should not be allowed based on their role or credentials
- Ransomware – Using malicious software to infect your organizations systems and restrict access to others until a ransom is paid
How prepared are you for a cyber threat?
Our approach makes sure cyber criminals don’t stand a chance. There are many ways to attack your company and we provide multiple avenues to defend each key area.
- We protect your emails and web traffic to deter bad links, code, and phishing emails
- We focus on your systems, workstations, and servers by using best practices and innovative tech to lock your systems down
- From there we look for any existing threats across your infrastructure
- The final step is continued training for your team members to ensure they are doing their part to keep your network and customer data safe
Overtime we help reinforce policies and awareness to ensure your team is looking out for cyber threats.
Our Approach
Our team will monitor the dark web to see if any of your employees have stolen credentials or leaked passwords. Let’s be honest most employees will use the same passwords for personal and business. This makes it easy for hackers to buy any stolen credentials available on the Dark Web to then log into your email, banking, or line of business apps. Our proactive approach ensures your network and data are secure.
We can ensure your employees stay focused by blocking certain access to files and websites. In addition, we deploy filtering software to block unwanted and malicious sites. Beyond access to outside threats, our team will help you determine who has access to what files. Knowing who can access what and who should or shouldn’t be able to access certain files will ensure additional safeguards of sensitive internal and customer data.
We provide continued training on phishing and security compliance to ensure your team plays a part in security efforts. Most security issues stem from users being unaware of things they should do to avoid, report, and not fall for common hacker tricks. Continued education ensures your employees are playing their part.
We use innovative technologies to secure and lockdown your mission critical endpoints. Hackers like to target common entry points like desktops, laptops, servers, and firewalls.
Our team knows that hackers will find entry points and ways to keep coming back into your network. Our team looks over your current environment to find any malicous and suspicious activity to ensure any unwanted guests are identified and kicked out for good.
Did you know that some of the biggest hacks came from software updates? We proactively monitor your environment and make sure your systems are running the latest and correct versions available to keep things running smooth.
