Data Breach Prevention
In order to protect your technology assets on all levels of your organization,
a prevention plan created from risk and vulnerability assessments must be
implemented to plan all your mitigation needs. We can provide this using our
end-to-end inspection process that covers the full depth-in-defense layer
security model.
Personally identifiable information (PII)
This form of data (PII) is used for personal identification, such as a person’s
social security number, birth date, birth- place, etc. When answering security
challenge questions to help change passwords on single sign-on logins,
this is used to assist in verifying an individual’s identity.
Encryption and careful hash field methodologies must be used when protecting
this data. DLP implementation using data breach solutions works for mitigating
an organization’s internal risks as well.
Our teams have the knowledge and experience in the latest best practice strategies
to help prevent these types of data breaches from occurring.
Financial data
Bank data breach protection is needed during any company-to-bank business
transactions over the internet. The strongest encryptions and connection timings
must be designed and managed to ensure financial transaction data is as safe as
possible.
A mass credit card data breach can devastate the reputation of a company.
Credit card digital information, when used must have the highest protection planning.
Especially database repositories with customer credit card fields. Should a
cyber-criminal breach your database like this, not only will your customer’s credit
cards be compromised, but also your organization’s reputation since it’s their
legal obligation to inform their constituents this violation has occurred.
Login Information
Usernames and passwords for accounts must utilize authentication encryption best
practices along with password policy controls to safeguard a user’s permission level
to their data.
Once authentication credentials have been verified, permission into the computer
system requires a user account look up for permission attributes. Appropriate access
rights are then set up in the current session as needed. A hacker could break into
this authentication through brute force hacking techniques or other Black Hat
approaches.
Permission Level data
After your login of username and password has been verified, your authentication
is approved and then your authorization process begins. Authorization looks over
your account attribute credentials and gives you the appropriate access levels you
have been assigned to by the system administrator.
Cybercriminals zone in on account attributes so they can capture and manipulate
them into super admin or root access levels. This would give them everything and
anything they wanted from your computer systems.
To prevent this type of data breach security intrusion, serious planning and
tunneling through your directory service platforms must be formulated and correctly
added to the infrastructure.
Our subject-matter-experts in Identity Management (IDM) specializations can help
give your team the architecture layouts needed to put this into place and save
countless hours of trial-and-error implementation into the environment.
Medical data
Healthcare data breach prevention is carefully regulated and reviewed periodically
thanks to the United States federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
requirements. Hospital data breach attacks or any related medical data breach
incidents have been shrinking every year thanks to the risk assessment guidelines
set by the government that protects the privacy of medical patient data.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP):
A strategy and defense for incoming hack attacks such as perimeter firewalls,
Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) are
important, but outgoing data privacy must be protected, as well.
An employee may by accident or through malice, attempt to send private company
data by storage drive transfers (such as DropBox®), or email content sent.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) can mitigate these data breaches using a DLP strategy
plan and software solution your administrators can use to protect outgoing
data breaches.
Why hire Data Breach Prevention Experts?
Data breach services are only as good as the experts who designed them. A data
breach response plan needs to be created along with a data breach report.
CyberSec provides all the data breach best practices and design skills necessary to
give your business the best framework and industry-proven knowledge experience
that will benefit your company for years to come.
