What is cloud computing?

Cloud computing is a technology that allows users to access and use computing resources (such as servers, storage, applications, and services) over the internet on a pay-per-use basis. Instead of owning and maintaining physical IT infrastructure, cloud computing allows businesses to leverage the scalability, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness of shared resources hosted by a third-party provider. This allows businesses to focus on their core competencies and reduce the burden of managing and maintaining their own IT infrastructure. Cloud computing can take various forms, including public, private, and hybrid clouds.

3 Cybersecurity Solutions That Can Help Avoid Costly Downtime

Cyber Security Solutions | Remedian IT Manchester

No matter what industry you’re in, your business likely depends on a wide variety of online communications and services. From virtual chat software to customer-facing support systems, losing network access could leave your company scrambling to deal with a plethora of negative consequences. Delays in one area could lead to problems in another, and even the restoration of the services could result in a workflow backup, loss of productivity and eroded confidence in your company. According to Gartner, something as minor as one hour of downtime can cost your company up to an average of £450,000.

Whether it’s because of a power outage, natural disaster, or basic human error, no company can afford to deal with the extensive impacts of system downtime. The best way to mitigate downtime risks and minimise the associated costs is to invest in preventative maintenance like cloud security. If you’re interested in keeping your downtime levels as low as possible without breaking the bank, review these three cybersecurity solutions that can help you avoid costly downtime. At Remedian IT Solutions, we can provide the solutions your business needs to thrive.

1. Identify and Address Threats with a Risk Assessment

To keep your organisation protected, it’s important to gain visibility into the existing and emerging threats to your critical assets, operations and intellectual property. The most efficient and cost-effective method of accomplishing these goals is to conduct a thorough risk assessment. This is where your company can identify your current IT requirements, review the adequacy of your existing cybersecurity policies, analyse threats and vulnerabilities and develop practical recommendations for improvement.

2. Protect Your Business with a Multi-Layered Cybersecurity Strategy

The key to providing the most comprehensive defense against a variety of cyberthreats is to layer multiple types of security measures so that the gaps, loopholes and vulnerabilities between each measure are significantly smaller, allowing hackers considerably less time and the ability to gain entry. Why settle for a strategy that focuses exclusively on network security when you can deploy a multi-layered strategy that encompasses everything from firewalls and data backup to cloud security and mobile device protection? To implement a strategy like this in your organisation, you’ll need to analyse existing weaknesses in your IT infrastructure, review existing security policies and create an integrated mesh of protection around your company’s systems.

3. Teach Your Employees to be the First Line of Defense with Cybersecurity Training

If your employees aren't capable of recognising a cyberthreat, they cannot be tasked with avoiding, reporting or mitigating one. On the other hand, making employees aware of cyberthreats and how to combat them, is a surefire way of strengthening one of the most vulnerable links in the chain. After all, approximately 95 percent of security breaches occur as a result of human error. No number of firewalls or amount of security software can combat the negative impact of employees who are left vulnerable to phishing, malware and other sneaky tactics. To make sure your employees are the first line of defense against cyberthreats, you’ll want to invest in an ongoing training program that’s customised for your unique business needs.
