05 Sep Data Protecting For Enterprises
Protecting data for companies is an essential aspect of modern business. Many IT professionals believe that following security protocols is a priority that can’t be compromised. Implementing the correct solution to secure data in the enterprise isn’t an easy task due to the sheer volume and variety of data that companies have to manage.
No matter if it’s data at still or in motion the task is huge. The world has changed from a time when all data was tied to physical devices and to locations under the control of an enterprise. Enterprise data can be stored on end-user devices or in multiple cloud environments, such as on the home computer of an employee.
Remote work has created more opportunities for cyber attacks and leaks. Employees who must jump through hoops to access critical systems are more likely to discover ways to circumvent them. This might include saving engineering photos in their personal email accounts, or copying and pasting information about the product into tweets.
To counter these threats, a multi-layered approach to data security is necessary. A comprehensive strategy could include encryption, access control backup and disaster recovery, DLP and IDPS, as well as employee training. It is also important to keep track of breaches and identify them and respond quickly. This includes enforcing an Zero Trust model where users as well as devices and network traffic are verified before being granted access to trusted resources. This can prevent an infection in one place from spreading to the entire enterprise.
