Why Choose Secure Technology Consultants?
What's the difference between IT and Cybersecurity?
All companies handle a certain degree of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). As a business owner, it is imperative to understand how to identify and protect your data on both your work and personal computers. In the government contracting space, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) must also be on your radar. The process of identifying and protecting the aforementioned sensitive data is as simple as partnering with a reliable Cybersecurity service.
"I already have an IT company in place...." Well, let's explore that. Did you know that there is a difference between an IT professional and a Cybersecurity professional?
* An IT professional implements and maintains the technology used to help day-to-day operations run as smoothly as possible.
* A Cybersecurity professional takes a deep-dive look into all of your endpoints and people behaviors, to recommend proactive measures to protect the data within your systems.
To draw on a medical analogy, think of IT professionals as Generalists whereas by comparison Cybersecurity professionals would be Cardiologists. Yes, a generalist may be able to help detect and even treat some heart-related problems. Wouldn't you prefer to see a specialist considering how critical the function of the heart is to your body's performance?
We use this example to align how important cybersecurity safety is to the heart of your business. Active monitoring is crucial with the 102% increase in hacker activity in the first half of 2021. The associated costs of a breach is expected to rise to the 6Trillion mark ...WHY RISK IT?
