Custom or "Ready-to-use" software, where to invest, and why?


In todayโ€™s tech-driven world, cyber security is more crucial than ever. As an IT company owner specializing in cyber security services, I've seen the rise in threats and the need for proactive protection. "Prevention is better than cure" isn't just a sayingโ€”itโ€™s essential.


Imagine receiving a phishing email from your bankโ€™s official email address. You click, enter information, and it's a scam! Your data is exposed, risking identity theft, financial loss, and reputational harm.


Ransomware attacks hijack your data and demand a ransom. ๐ˆ๐ง ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ, ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฌ๐ž ๐š๐ญ๐ญ๐š๐œ๐ค๐ฌ ๐œ๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ˆ๐ง๐๐ข๐š๐ง ๐›๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ โ‚น๐Ÿญ.๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฑ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐จ๐ง. Another threat is data breaches, with an average cost of โ‚น165 million in India in 2021, leading to legal consequences, client loss, and a damaged corporate image.


A highly reputed manufacturing companyโ€™s server was compromised in a cyber attack, resulting in a complete shutdown of their SAP system. As a result, their production lines came to a halt, causing significant operational disruption. The company faced not only immediate financial losses but also delays in fulfilling customer orders and damage to their reputation in the market. This incident underscores the critical importance of robust cyber security measures to prevent such attacks.


Proactive measures like strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, software updates, and regular security audits can fortify defenses. Employee training on phishing, password security, and recognizing suspicious activities is crucial.


Backup and recovery plans are vital in ransomware attacks. Firewalls and antivirus software act as guards. The CIA triad (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) guides a robust security framework. Constant monitoring and log maintenance enable immediate threat detection and response.


After an attack, quick action is crucial. A good plan and adherence to protocols can limit damage and aid recovery. Ignoring these steps leads to significant losses, legal trouble, and lasting damage.


As guardians of digital safety, we must stay alert and act before problems arise. By focusing on prevention, we build strong defenses and protect our businesses from digital threats. In cyber security, it's better to stop problems before they start.
