Last year, organizations around the world spent close to $150 billion on cybersecurity. They made these investments because the post-pandemic cybercrime wave continues to surge. Damage from cyberattacks is expected to hit $10.5 trillion annually by 2025—a 300% increase over a decade. If you are in a position of responsibility at any organization, it’s important to understand that you are fighting a cyberwar. You should also know that the fast-growing cybersecurity management industry is developing technology that can help you win.
The endless arms race between cybersecurity professionals and their criminal adversaries has picked up pace dramatically in recent years. Threat actors such as sophisticated criminal organizations and nation-states are adopting new tools, including artificial intelligence and machine learning. The risk of cyberattack is increasing exponentially—and so too must your cybersecurity capabilities.
It’s very likely that your IT infrastructure plays a central role in your business. Your computers, printers, phones, and wireless access points, as well as your surveillance and alarm systems, are all networked and connected by cables and wires. Professional network cabling and wiring services can help most companies optimize the infrastructure that keeps their communications and the rest of their technology’s lifeblood flowing.
As technology continues to evolve at an increasingly rapid rate, creating demands for new IT skillsets practically by the month, staff augmentation can itself become a full-time job. Many business leaders and hiring managers are finding that professional IT services providers are positioned perfectly to help them find staffers to fill temporary or permanent IT positions.
As your data increases in volume and value, alongside rising threats of natural disaster, equipment malfunction, and cyberattack, it is prudent to consider working with a Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) provider. When selecting such a partner, sometimes known as a Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP), it is important to look for experience, a technical reach that spans the full scope of your needs, and the willingness to customize services to fit your exact requirements.
Most business leaders have understood for quite some time that it is essential to have a solid disaster recovery (DR) plan in place to protect the integrity of their IT infrastructure. In recent months, as cybercrime has skyrocketed and natural disasters continue to proliferate, we have learned that planning for disaster recovery in 2022 is much more urgent than ever before.
