Now is the Time to Create a Cybersecurity Response and Recovery Plan

According to new research, four in five malware attacks delivered by encrypted connections evade detection. And since two-thirds of malware is now arriving this way, it has the potential to be a big problem for your business.

This type of threat has already hit record levels and continues to grow. So, if you don’t yet have a response and recovery plan in place, now’s the time to create one.

It sits alongside your cybersecurity software protection and regular staff training. The plan details what you do in the event of a cyberattack.

Having the right plan in place means all your people will know how to sound the alarm if something is wrong. It ensures downtime and damage are kept to an absolute minimum.

The faster you respond to an attack, the less data you should lose and the less it should cost you to put things right.

Of course, you should also follow the usual security guidelines, ensuring that updates and patches are installed immediately, and regularly checking your backup is working and verified.

Businesses that don’t place high importance on their own cybersecurity planning are the ones hit hardest by such an attack.
