Most data breaches are not caused by “super hackers,” but in everyday life by incorrect access rights, misdirected mail, lost devices, human error – or ransomware. Which technical and organizational vulnerabilities can be relevant as preventive measures in data security and data backup to avoid a data breach? What needs to be done? And what is important? What is the best way to proceed?
- Which data is business-critical / particularly sensitive?
- Which processes run daily (mail, cloud, file sharing, CRM)?
- Who has access – and really needs it?
2) Technical prevention (the “Big 6”)
- Test backups + recovery (otherwise ransomware is a total loss)
- MFA everywhere, especially admins, mail, VPN, cloud
- Patch & update discipline (systems, apps, devices)
- Encryption of laptops/phones + secure key management
- Logging & monitoring (so that you even notice attacks/incorrect access)
- Segmentation & Least Privilege (minimize access, limit damage)
3) Organizational prevention (where most breakdowns occur)
- Authorization concept
- Clear rules for sending data
- Standard processes for file sharing/cloud
- Training
- Device & paper protection
4) Preparing (because prevention is never 100%)
- Incident notebook: who decides, who communicates, who documents
- Quick risk assessment (report? inform? measures?)
- Templates for internal reporting, management information, customer communication The webinar will give you clarity and a plan:
- You reduce the risk of downtime, reputational damage, reporting stress and fines.
- You get clear priorities instead of 100 measures without effect.
- You will receive an implementable roadmap that fits into your business processes.
