DATA PROTECTION SOLUTIONS


A Network Assessment is not enough –

we recommend a Complete Risks Assessment
 

Why?

Because a network assessment will only discover hardware and software issues, doesn't address the real issue. Understanding how the network is configured, accessing application licensing and evaluating server specifications are important but an assessment should demonstrate how likely it is that an interruption or breach would occur and the impact this would have on a business.


 

 

Just like a plane crash, the impact of an IT security breach will be high. We cannot control the impact but we can reduce the likelihood that the event would occur in the first place through mandating pilots get ample rest and frequent inspections of the instruments. Corporations should use the same rationale to protect - not human life - but their business' life.

 


 

Here are a few important questions to ask yourself.

What data do you need to protect?

 

What are all relevant threats that can cause your data to be lost, temporarily unavailable or compromised?

 

Are you comfortable with your ability to detect and respond to a failure or breach before data is lost or stolen?

 



Sklar Technology provides Complete Risk Assessments. Passwords, firewall's and virus protection all provide necessary protection but what about detection and rapid response when protection is not enough or fails to completely protect? Security is not software, hardware or a policy; rather, it is a discipline that proactively protects and detects threats to your network and the data stored on it. Sklar Technology is a complete security solutions provider that helps businesses address and act upon this important initial security step.
