1. Verify, verify, and verify<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAdopt a ‘trust-nothing, verify-everything’ stance in your security approach by consistently authenticating the identity and access privileges of users, devices, and applications. Implementing robust Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls can aid in this process by defining roles and access privileges, thereby ensuring access to critical information is granted only to authorized personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2.<\/strong> Restrict access <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nOne of the primary reasons for cyberattacks is the misuse of privileged access. Instituting access restrictions ensures users receive only the necessary access required for their daily tasks without hindrance. Some prevalent security practices adopted by organizations to curtail access include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Just-in-time access (JIT)<\/strong> \u2013 This method allows users, devices, or applications to have access only for a pre-defined period, limiting the duration for which critical systems are accessible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Principle of least privilege (PoLP)<\/strong> \u2013 This practice grants the bare minimum access or permissions needed to fulfill their job responsibilities to users, devices, or applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Segmented application access (SAA)<\/strong> \u2013 Users can access only approved applications, thwarting malicious users from penetrating the network.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
3. Anticipate Breaches and Mitigate Impact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nRather than adopting a reactive stance post-breach, you can proactively safeguard your cybersecurity by assuming a constant state of risk. This approach entails treating all applications, services, identities, and networks, both internally and externally, as potential compromise points. This proactive approach significantly reduces response time in the event of a breach, minimizes potential damage, enhances overall security, and, above all, safeguards your business operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
