Cyber Risks
Just a normal Tuesday at work… or so you thought...- Educate your staff – protection against attacks is everyone’s responsibility (and the message is relatively simple) if the link looks suspect, don’t click on it.
- Back up, back up, back up – do it frequently.
- Don’t ignore updates – software patches are crucial.
- Have a plan – develop incident response and business continuity plans.
Perhaps most important of all is awareness of the realisation that an attack is not a remote possibility. It is a likelihood. Action now can help both prevent an attack and the consequences should your systems fall prey.
Who can help?
There is a growing range of service providers who can help with both the setup of your incident response plans, and to act when the attack happens. What’s also available in the market is a specific cyber risk insurance product which provides a range of cover and, usually, includes support for incident response, forensic analysis and public relations management.
