Cyber Security
An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure
Protect Your Business
As more and more of our everyday business is conducted online, the huge value these transactions represent are bound to attract criminal interest. Hackers are no longer the proverbial spotty teenager with a home-built computer. Rather, this activity is now the preserve of criminal gangs using sophisticated technology to steal money on a vast scale.
Government statistics show that 40% of British businesses suffered at least one cyber attack in 2022, with many experiencing numerous attacks. The average cost ranges from £4,200 in small firms to £19,400 in medium and large firms.
You wouldn't leave the front doors of your premises unlocked at night, but many firms seem content to leave their IT systems open and vulnerable to attack. We can help secure your IT systems using commercial-grade security solutions and monitoring.
Cyber Security Services
Secure your business with our comprehensive managed security services.
Managed Anti-Virus
Not all anti-virus software is created equal. To be effective they need to be constantly updated to be aware of the latest Worms, Trojan horses, Rootkits, Spyware, Keyloggers, Ransomware, Adware and so on. Managed Anti-Virus protects your business from any number of threats and gives you the peace of mind that a trusted IT partner is managing and monitoring this, so you don't have to.
Mobile Device Security
The number of devices an average employee uses through the workday has multiplied. Particularly in BYOD environments, staff might use a desktop PC, a laptop, and multiple smartphones or tablets — all containing sensitive business data. Our mobile device management (MDM) solution lets us remotely provision, monitor, manage, secure, and wipe data on almost any device.
DataShield Backup
The most comprehensive backup and data recovery solution, scalable to businesses of all sizes. With DataShield, your data, Exchange Server, SQL Database and Virtual machines can be backed up on-site, off-site, or both using 256-bit encryption. Bare Metal restore capability means downtime is dramatically reduced and business interruption is minimised.
Domain Security
Company domain names, DNS, and digital certificates are being attacked with increasing frequency. Solland IT offers a layered domain security strategy using registry locks, DNSSEC, and DMARC to protect your website, email, and online business from criminals seeking to intercept communications or harvest credentials.
MailMinder Anti-Spam
MailMinder is an industrial-strength anti-spam solution that identifies junk email and spam, preventing their delivery. Only genuine email is delivered, saving time and reducing threats. MailMinder employs a granular approach, meaning acceptable email settings are chosen by you, with access to quarantined emails and the ability to release legitimate messages.
Cybersecurity Training
Our training teaches your employees about cyber security, IT best practices and regulatory compliance. Topics include how to avoid phishing and social engineering attacks, how to spot malware and report threats, company IT policies, and adherence to GDPR and PCI DSS. Studies show ongoing training can significantly improve a business's resilience to cyber attack.
Always Up to Date
One of the most important parts of your defences is making sure all of your software and hardware is up to date.
Security Patches Applied
Manufacturers release security patches for even quite old systems, but they have to be installed to do any good. Our support solutions ensure you're always current.
