For Yorkshire business owners, protecting company data is as important as securing your premises. Just as you wouldn’t rely on a single lock for your office, you shouldn’t depend on a single security solution for your IT systems.
The Rise of Local Cyber Threats
Recent reports show that Yorkshire businesses face an average of 125 cyber-attacks per week. From small shops in Leeds to manufacturing firms in Sheffield, no business is too small to be targeted. That’s why more local companies are turning to multi-layer security approaches.
What is Multi-Layer Security? Think of multi-layer security like a Yorkshire pudding – it needs multiple ingredients working together to be successful. Here’s what a strong security setup includes:
- Advanced Endpoint Protection (Sentinel One)
- Stops threats before they can damage your systems
- Works even when staff are working from home
- Provides real-time protection against ransomware
- Password Management (Keeper)
- Safely stores all your business passwords
- Prevents staff from using weak passwords
- Makes sharing access secure and simple
- Web Protection (Cisco Umbrella)
- Blocks dangerous websites automatically
- Protects staff wherever they’re working
- Stops threats before they reach your network
- Backup Solutions (Acronis)
- Keeps your data safe and recoverable
- Works like an insurance policy for your information
- Gets you back up and running quickly after any incident
- Staff Training (Usecure)
- Turns your team into security wizards
- Regular, simple training sessions
- Helps spot threats before they become problems
The Cost Factor
While some businesses worry about the cost of comprehensive security, consider this: the average cyber-attack costs UK small businesses £8,460.
