Network Security: Basics

Over the past few decades, business technology has evolved at an exponential rate.  New and enticing storage solutions are rapidly appearing on the market.

Today, the entire organizational and informational foundation of a company can be housed on a server or network cloud. Technology of this caliber is revolutionary—it provides more efficient and secure storage methods while also affording employees ready access to crucial information. However, by consolidating information in one centralized location, this technology also creates new windows of opportunity for hackers to infiltrate business networks.

Once hackers have gained entry, they are able to undermine the integrity of your business operation by stealing, altering, copying, and deleting files. In order to prevent catastrophic network breaches, a business must invest significant time and resources into preparing for a cyber attack. Employees must also learn about the different types of attacks and ways to prevent them; that's why the experts here at Onepath have answered six essential questions every business should ask itself when making efforts to strengthen its cybersecurity.
