Effective data protection requires appropriate technical and organizational solutions.
Key Security Factors
IT security
within the company
Examples of threats
Weak passwords
People often use passwords that are too weak, relying on full words or combining them with numbers, which creates risk Creating strong passwords should be the responsibility of higher-level employees, and the passwords themselves can be written down in a physical form, accessible to both the employee and his or her supervisor.
The solution is password managers such as LastPass or 1Password, which allow you to generate complex passwords, different for each account. Thanks to this, the user only needs to remember one strong password, which provides access to the rest.
Phishing websites
Phishing websites pose a potential threat when employees use the Internet for entertainment purposes in the workplace. While a break from work is necessary, in the context of cybersecurity, it can lead to problems. There are phishing sites which conduct impersonation attacks by mimicking well-known webpages in order to extort data, which poses a threat to private individuals.
In the case of corporate data, this can be disastrous. The same applies to mailboxes, which are susceptible to SPAM and phishing attempts. Therefore, training employees in IT security is a key solution.
Accidental loss of data
From the perspective of the work performed, it is essential to ensure that the results are properly recorded. While most programs currently offer an automatic saving function, some of them still require this operation to be performed manually. It is worth sensitizing employees to this, as it may result in the loss of progress on a given task, which translates directly into losses for the company.
An extension of this responsibility should be periodic archiving of files from the computer, i.e. creating the so-called backup, which allows you to restore accidentally lost files.
