Trends in cyber security - what we need to look out for and how we help our clients

July 21, 2022

One of the important aspects you should prioritise in your business is cybersecurity because you need to protect your network and systems containing valuable and sensitive data. It will protect all the aspects of data from damage and theft, which can prevent you from losing clients. You must ensure a proper cybersecurity strategy so that your business can defend itself from malicious acts or cyber threats. Here are some trends in cybersecurity.

Two-Factor Authentication

Two-factor authentication or “2FA” is one of the common recommendations of IT support teams because it gives protection against identity theft and helps maintain a strong security base. Hackers will have a difficult time cracking down on your data because 2FA offers a stronger defence against breaches. This is not only beneficial for your business but also to your personal transactions, like online banking or online shopping, as 2FA notifies you when someone attempts to access your account.  

The Power of AI

AI or Artificial Intelligence can prevent cybercrime by identifying unusual patterns of behaviour taking place in your system. It can work in systems that need to cope with volumes of instances where cybercriminals try to attack. AI can detect threats across thousands of elements within the IT network from website visits, emails, to hacking attempts. 

Cloud Security

These days, more and more businesses use the cloud as part of their cybersecurity measures. Using the cloud has proven effective when it comes to accessing data, collaborating with teams and enhancing content management. Cloud security is designed to protect cloud-based data, applications and infrastructure. It protects your company’s data from malware, unauthorised user access and other forms of cyberattacks.
