What Should Be Your Company's data backup strategy to mitigate Network Security attack?

Today network security threats are more frequent and sophisticated than ever. Organizations depend on IT systems, so infrastructure must be protected from infiltration and damage. Typical environments have main controllers, servers, databases, virtualization hosts, backups, and endpoints while using cloud-based solutions. However, some advanced companies have an off-site disaster recovery environment.

For many organizations, even a single attack spell disaster. Cyber-attacks in the form of ransomware are now more pervasive and increasing. These attacks no longer trust target production data but also increasingly encrypting or deleting backup copies and leaving the organizations with no option but to surrender.

To mitigate the cybersecurity attacks, organizations must include modern backup solutions as part of the overall network security strategy, which provides immunity to ransomware attacks with an immutable file system, role-based access to ensure only authorized users can gain access. Below are some of the critical strategies to resist Cybersecurity attacks.

• Changing the administrator user name to increase security
• Disable user accounts when too many failed logins occur
• Add a web filtering product to defend against a host of network attacks
• Introduce patch systems to keep devices secure from known exploits and add anti-viruses to every machine
• By segmenting the rules of admins to limit the risk of loss due to a compromised administrator account
