Security is paramount. We can’t stress this enough. It’s not a matter of if your business will be hit by a cyberattack. It’s a matter of when.
The only real variables are how serious it will be and how long it will take your business to recover. The image of the cybercriminal as a lone hacker, sitting in a darkened room, surrounded by screens slowly filling with glowing green characters is hopelessly outdated. Malware can be bought off-the-peg by anybody who has the inclination, and attacks are now often carried out by highly organised gangs from vast server farms armed with unimaginable computational power.
These criminal enterprises have their own markets and economy, and it has been estimated that the global cost of damage from cybercrime could be as much as $8 trillion - a figure which is rising all the time. Small businesses make up nearly half of all victims and we’ve seen - first-hand - businesses brought to their knees by cyberattacks which could have largely been avoided or mitigated by the following:
At Orvis, we take your security seriously. Our ongoing use of Linux as the base for our server systems obviates most of the vulnerabilities of Windows-based servers and, with this in mind, we have installed Linux-based desktop machines wherever possible to reduce risks further – this is especially ideal if your business relies on largely web-based functionality, and it doesn’t involve the operational changes you might imagine.
We offer further enhanced security options in the form of the Orvis Business Backup package - a modular product comprising the Orvis Black Box and Orvis Remote Backup
In addition to supplying the right security solution, we also provide remote support and support contract options to ensure your business runs smoothly.
Proper endpoint security on all your business desktops and laptops is your first line of defence against cyber threats. Once a threat is active on your network, it can be very difficult to stop. That’s why quality endpoint security such as SentinelOne is a must for all your desktops and laptops.
In addition to endpoint security, protecting your network is a must. A security gateway can help protect your network from outside attacks while a mail gateway scanner can clean your email before it reaches your staff - reducing the risk of them opening infected email.
Data backup is one of the most important considerations in today's business climate. Losing your data can cripple your business. We have developed our own secure data backup solution which can automatically store your data locally or in the cloud.
