Are You Prepared For A Cyber Emergency?
Data security is no longer a luxury, it is a necessity for organizations of all sizes. Every person who logs on to the internet at their job or at their home is at risk of becoming a victim of a cyber emergency.
A cyber emergency is the loss or compromise of organization information or systems, typically through third-party intrusion, employee sabotage, or accident. Read this cybersecurity blog article to learn more!
Even though so many organizations are not prepared for a cyber emergency situation, cybersecurity has now become a top priority. Gartner predicts the worldwide information security spending is forecasted to exceed $124 billion in 2019.
Cyber emergencies are growing in number and intensity worldwide. According to Blackhat, there were 698 major data breaches in the United States as of May 30, 2017, representing more than 10 million compromised records.
Organizations report thousands of attacks monthly, varying from minor to extremely serious, and the majority of business owners still do not have a plan to recover. However, thanks to advances in technology, protecting your organization is easier than ever before.
With the increasing number of attacks, it is important your organization is securely protected from these common threats. Microtek and Digitech Systems has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and is dedicated to keeping your data safe from disasters of every kind.
