When was the last time you heard about a network security breach? Perhaps a day ago or an hour ago, maybe just minutes ago. The reality is that network security breaches are happening all the time, and they cost organizations and business enterprises millions of dollars.
You can protect your business or enterprise by ensuring your business operates in a trusted, secure environment. It can be difficult to understand how to secure a network that will be safe and secure. This is especially true for small- and medium-sized organizations that don’t employ full-time IT staff. Luckily, there are some computer network security best practices that business owners can implement today to secure their data and build protection against hackers and viruses.
Firewalls
A firewall is specifically designed to block unauthorized access to computers and networks. A firewall is a set of rules that controls your network traffic coming in and going out.
Computers and networks that pass these rules are granted access, and those that don’t pass the security protocols are walled out. Fatbeam Safeguard simplifies firewall security without sacrificing security. Safeguard uses state-of-the-art technology and ensures you have the tools and most recent version of software as well as the behind-the-scenes resources you need to keep your organization safe and secure.
Virtual Private Network
One of the best ways to protect your business is with a virtual private line. You get a superior method of transporting your data at stable high speeds for both uploads and downloads without having to worry about completing for bandwidth from other businesses on the same network. It’s a carpool lane for your internet, and it is extremely reliable. It is also symmetrical, and it gives you your very own private internet road. Your data and information are secure via native ethernet protocol from end to end.
Multi-Layered Security
Utilizing a layered approach to security means you set up several hurdles that the bad guys must overcome to get to your data, user information, etc. The more challenging it is for someone to gain access to your resources, the less likely they will spend their resources trying to get to your data. While that does not always apply to every case, if your security methodology is set up so you can stop a large percentage of malicious activity early on, you can focus your resources and attention on the more sophisticated attempts.
Fatbeam offers a security bundle with three powerful products that provide superior protection for your business.
Our Safeguard product provides you peace of mind with predictable and reduced IT expenses. With built-in redundancy, you can be confident that the Safeguard Firewall will always be there to protect your network.
Fatbeam Shield uses DNS (Domain Name System) layer security to protect you from threats out on the Internet. It blocks requests to malicious destinations before a connection is even established – stopping threats before they reach your network or endpoints.
Fatbeam’s DDoS Mitigation is a fully managed service that monitors, detects, validates, and mitigates attacks. Many DDOS attacks are aimed at services the server doesn’t intend to use. By dropping this traffic, the IP will still be able to use the internet through other ports. Helping your team to remain functional and productive.
