IT’S NOT A QUESTION OF “IF.” IT’S JUST A MATTER OF “WHEN.”
YOUR NETWORK AND DATA WILL BE TARGETED BY HACKERS. WE CAN HELP YOUR COMPANY DEFEND ITSELF.
Attacks on information technology networks and data systems have increased exponentially in recent years. Problems increased as office-based businesses allowed more employees to work from home during the COVID pandemic without implementing much-needed cybersecurity measures to prevent the malicious work of hackers who were ready to disrupt operations, leak confidential data and often extort large sums of money from companies of all sizes.
Leaders from army generals to football coaches will tell you “The best offense is a good defense.” Just as you invest in insurance to protect your company’s physical assets, you need to invest in measures to prevent damage to your data, network, hardware, software and, most importantly, your company’s reputation and your customers’ trust in you.
If you are not 100% sure you have taken all the necessary steps to prevent cybersecurity threats at your business, now is the time to talk to Invision. Our experts can identify and evaluate IT security issues and risks, and can implement solutions to defend your operations and data.
Invision’s cybersecurity services for businesses include:
ON-SITE, FAST-RESPONSE SERVICE
When you know or suspect your business has been hacked with ransomware or attacked by a virus, time is of the essence, and there are many problems that a remotely located IT support team cannot fix, including issues with your hardware, network, network switch, firewall and internet connection. Invision provides fast response with “feet on the ground” support at your Kansas City Area business location.
SECURITY AUDITING
When is the last time you had a professional IT team assess your business’s technology security? If your answer is “never” or “more than a year ago,” you’re at substantial risk of being hacked. Cybercriminals continuously get smarter, so the safety measures you took a few years ago won’t protect you now. Schedule an IT audit to determine the strength and reliability of your current technology infrastructure.
An IT audit, when performed by Invision’s consultants and database administrators, assesses the security of your company’s data access, storage and backup, plus your servers and their performance. With new technology and the need to have a solid, reliable infrastructure to weather whatever happens next, this audit is designed to find any improvements that could be made. Once upgrades are in place, ongoing support keeps everything and everyone connected and protected.
From a network administration perspective, an IT audit evaluates software, hardware and LAN/WAN protocols to determine if they are still your best options for minimizing downtime and glitches in your employee and operation workflows.
EMPLOYEE TRAINING
In most companies now, employees access company email, servers, software and other applications from a variety of company-owned and personal devices, including their own mobile phones, computers and tablets. Employees mean no harm, but most don’t understand how their well-intended actions can put your company at risk. Invision can train your employees on ways to prevent a widespread attack on your systems, which are most often made through innocent-looking emails and text messages. Ongoing education is the best defense. Invision will also instruct, or provide direction to new employees so that your security measures are part of your onboarding process.
Invision can also help you and your leadership team develop an incident response plan that outlines the immediate steps you’ll need to take in the event of a ransomware or other malware attack.
MALWARE REMOVAL AND BREACH MITIGATION
Viruses and malware such as spyware and ransomware can enter your company network through malicious emails and their attachments. There will come a time when one of your employees, or maybe you, click on the wrong thing. Ransomware locks computer files and the hacker sends a demand for ransom, promising a key to unlock data once the ransom is paid.
Invision can help you implement two-factor authentication to add a layer of protection against stolen passwords and unauthorized access to your network, and we can install air-gapped backup systems that will enable you to recover your data in the event of an attack.
DATA SECURITY, STORAGE AND BACKUP
To save time and resources, businesses are migrating most or all of their data to the cloud. Not only is moving to the cloud driven by the need for tighter security and data protection, it is one of the best practices that will help you mitigate threats of breaches and ransomware.
The cost of operating in the cloud is attractive to business owners when compared to keeping their networks on site. A secure, cloud-based system enables you and your employees to work more efficiently from anywhere there’s internet access.
Trust Invision for Security Services
You have a business to run, employees to manage and customers to serve. Running your information network and all of its associated hardware and software should not eat up your valuable time and energy, and it certainly shouldn’t keep you awake at night. Let Invision be your IT security blanket, and rest easy.
