Proactive service as a mandatory condition for maintaining the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the information!
Over the past two years we have worked very hard at Gini to adapt the service we provide to customers in accordance with the dramatic changes and the increase in threats.
Proactive IT and cyber security service refers to the practice of taking preventative measures to identify and mitigate potential threats. This approach includes monitoring systems, identifying vulnerabilities and implementing controls to reduce the likelihood of a successful attack.
Proactive service is essential because it helps minimize the impact of cyber threats and reduce the risk of data breaches, financial loss and reputational damage. By keeping a close eye on potential threats, organizations can maintain the integrity and availability of their critical systems and data, ensuring business continuity.
In addition, proactive service can help organizations meet regulatory requirements and build trust with customers and stakeholders by demonstrating a commitment to security and risk management.
Although it seems simple, the process of proactive maintenance requires deep evaluations and familiarity with a variety of topics in the worlds: communication, FW, GPO, monitoring, patch management, ads and more..
There is no doubt that each customer is a whole world and the service must match the business requirements in order to provide an authentic response
Examples of things that must be proactively checked:
- Daily transition on logs
- Station and server updates
- Monitoring information security tools and entering indicators
- Maintaining employee awareness in a variety of ways, such as sending a fake phishing email, awareness training, etc.
- Tests for the backup system and proactive recovery
- Tests for the DR system and building a DRP plan
Of course, there are many other things that need to be done, but the phrase that I hear a lot "If it works, don't touch it" must be deleted from the lexicon
