Threat Prevention at Its Best

Network security is complicated, especially for small businesses who might not have a top-down security professional on staff to keep tabs on everything. You can make security a lot easier for your business with a modern firewall. The firewall is a crucial tool that all businesses, whether big or small, should implement. Here are the four key security features of the modern cybersecurity strategy and why they are essential for the ongoing digital security of your business.

Firewall Proper

In security, it’s best to be proactive and prevent threats from accessing your network in the first place. This is where a firewall comes in; it’s your first line of defense against incoming threats. A firewall analyzes traffic entering and departing your network to ensure that no threats are found. No security strategy is complete without a robust firewall.

Antivirus

While the goal is always to keep threats out, sometimes it’s just not possible, either due to a vulnerability or a particularly sneaky hacker. In situations like this, you need systems that can address security threats, quarantine them, and eliminate them as they occur. The last thing you want is to have a threat remain on your network unchecked, causing untold havoc over a few weeks, months, or even years.

Spam Protection

Spam is annoying, and if left unchecked, it can clog up your inbox and cost your organization a lot more than you think. Most threats targeting your business will come from phishing attacks, so it's essential to keep your inbox as clean as possible. Spam protection will eliminate most dangerous messages before they even hit your inbox, which protects both your infrastructure and your time.

Content Filtering

While we hope your team doesn’t have a problem with web content, some of the more conspicuous stuff can be wasteful, unprofessional, and outright dangerous. A content filtering solution keeps your team on task and safe by whitelisting and blacklisting apps by user. This keeps your employees from accessing specific sites while allowing you to maintain control over what information can be accessed.
