An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure

 

We’ve all heard this old saw, and it’s still popular for a reason: it’s right. Taking strong preventative measures now to protect your data saves both time and money later. More than 50% of businesses had a data breach in 2020 – and that’s a time-consuming money pit for any company. By taking the right preventative measures now, you can lower your risk of a data breach later.  
One of the most important preventative measures to take right away is updated training about current phishing threats. Right now, cybercriminals are using many new tricks to mount phishing attacks. While your staff may be aware that they shouldn’t open unexpected attachments, do they know not to click surprise links, or open unanticipated PDFs, or accept unverified Zoom invitations? Updated phishing training prepares them to resist these threats and protect your data.  
Coupling phishing resistance training with 24/7/365 Dark Web monitoring guards your data on two fronts. Not only are you preventing bad actors from getting a front door key to your data with improved phishing resistance, but you’re also making sure that cybercriminals aren’t sneaking in the back door either by watching for Dark Web threats. By combining multiple solutions that work together well, you can maximize the ways that your security solutions help prevent data loss – because strong, sensible preventative measures always pay off.
