ABSTRACT:
Every SMB should have a written (and thoughtfully prepared) network-security plan in place.
The following tips should help you develop, and win support for, an effective network-security plan:
- Focus on return on value rather than return on investment. Consider the potentially devastating impact of security breaches such as loss of revenue or customer litigation
- Never assume network attacks will only come from outsiders. Loyal employees can inadvertently create security vulnerabilities, and disgruntled or former employees can cause considerable damage
- Don't be tempted to confront security concerns with a piecemeal approach rather than a single, unified strategy
- Work with others within your company to develop and implement security strategies, focusing on technology, training, physical site security, and more
- Find the right balance between security and usability. The more secure your network is, the more difficult it can be to use
