IT Security Essentials for your Business
Keeping software up to date
Keeping software up to date is critical. Whatever software you are using hackers will find it easier to get into old versions.
Keeping on top of patches and fixes is a great way to help keep you protected. Ensuring you are on the latest version of your software is also critical for your security plan.
Cyber security
For the modern world, virus protection is no longer enough, you need to protect your company from the criminals who are after your data.
This is achieved via a combination of data encryption, end point protection, anti ransomware and more. The more you can protect, the safer you are.
Backups and backup testing
The number one defence against cyber attacks. Offsite and local backups are essential, so are the testing of those backups. If your backup does not restore as expected it’s a failure.
When did you last test the backups in your business?

Webroot DNS Protection
What is DNS Protection?
Domain Name System
The domain name system (DNS) works like a phone book for the internet.
When a user enters text into a browser, DNS servers take that input and translate it into the unique internet protocol (IP) addresses that let the browser open the desired site.
Why is it needed?
DNS protocols were never designed with security in mind, and are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks, such as cache poisoning, DDoS, DNS hijacking, botnets, C&C, man-in-the-middle, and more.
DNS protection
Webroot SecureAnywhere DNS protection is a cloud-based web security which helps to protect employees and data from malicious content online and is designed to combat this.
It offers threat protection with the integration of Webroot’s BrightCloud Threat Intelligence.

It also provides superb web filtering over the websites employees can access. There is no hardware or software to install meaning installation is fast, and easy. The service also offers reporting and monitoring of employee behaviour.
