Cybersecurity Recommendations For Government Organisations
The scale and importance of data, both government and defence organisations hold and share, make them an attractive target for cyber attackers. Here are some recommendations on how to prepare your organisation to be cyber aware.
Acknowledge The Threat – the probability of a breach is highly likely. However, if you are prepared, it will lessen the impact to the organisation. The security mantra for any organisation should be ‘when’ and not ‘if’ we will be breached.
About The Entire Organisation’s Security – do not limit security to just the IT department, instead share it across your people, processes, and technologies as these are all likely targets for hackers. Also, ensure that senior executives understand and are part of the process.
Create A Cybersecurity Strategy & Plan – share your documents and deploy the actions. Plus, do not forget the added merit of a disaster recovery plan to ensure you cover in every eventually.
Penetration Test Your Enviroment – penetration testing allows you to evaluate the security of your organisation by testing it using ethical hackers like LRQA Nettitude.
Remediate Findings – after a test, ensure you act quickly to remediate any findings that highlight threats or weaknesses to your organisation.
Continue The Process – securing and protecting an organisation is a continual process. Arrange regular security reviews and never be complacent.
