Securing your business’ daily operations

Companies are a direct target for many cyberattacks today, making it strategically and tactically important to protect the information the business cannot afford to lose. Operations that depend on IT systems for operation, monitoring and control are particularly vulnerable. Insufficient security can jeopardize competitiveness today, and even the long-term future.

Cybersecurity in the corporate sector

Many kinds of companies and organisations in the corporate sector are targets for serious cyberattacks. For example, banks and insurance companies handle a great deal of sensitive, and personal, data that needs to be secured. This enhances the need for cybersecurity in the corporate sector.

Digital development has different names in different industries, but everything is based on the principle of making better use of information technology in several commercialisation steps and operational activities. One of the consequences of digitalisation is the new and changing needs of security for information and technology. New challenges also arise when different systems communicate with each other.

With technology development encompassing Big Data, Internet of Things and API solutions, it is easy to create innovative solutions without technical barriers. Everything is connected and all information can be stored and processed to create added value. But as companies digitalise, they increasingly face cybersecurity challenges that can threaten their operations and sensitive business information. Digitalisation means that they expose themselves to new cyber threats such as data breaches, ransomware attacks and other forms of cybercrime that can undermine their business and customers’ trust. To secure the digital assets and customer data, solutions at a sufficiently high security level are needed.

Security regulations for actors in the corporate sector

There are more specific regulations and guidelines for certain businesses, for example banks. The guidelines from the European Banking Authority, EBA, are the European standard for managing security and IT risks. It describes how banks, fund managers and providers of payment services operating within the EU are to manage internal and external risks linked to IT and security. Hopefully, this will reduce the likelihood of attacks, data leaks, disruptions and intrusions. Among other things, the guidelines point out which security measures have to be developed and implemented to mitigate IT and security risks that expose financial institutions. It is essential to understand that the guidelines have legal status and that the operators covered, therefore, are obliged to justify any deviations from its application.

Common use cases for businesses in the corporate sector

Secure communication to or from a high security domain

Do you need secure data collecting but also want to share collected data with a high security domain or network? Or do you want to send data to a secure data-sharing platform from a network with a higher security classification without exposing it? By using Synkzone’s secure cloud for data collection and sharing, along with Advenica’s data diode to protect your high security domain or network, you can ensure that communication is strictly one-way and secure.

Secure Unidirectional File Transfer

A common need in a segmented network environment is to import and export files between different zones. File transfer and file sharing is done both between people and machines, using several different technologies depending on the environment. However, file transfer can quickly become a challenge when the zones also have different security classifications.

Secure updates

Updates for Windows and Linux systems are an important part of maintaining the security of the digital information in these systems. However, the updates themselves may be a security risk – to avoid these risks and to maintain the integrity and availability of the systems and be able to make secure updates, special solutions are required.

Secure centralised logging

Most IT-systems generate logs that enable troubleshooting and traceability. To benefit from such logs, it is important to combine logs from many systems. But with security-sensitive or zoned systems, you need to use special solutions to mitigate the increased risk of attacks that come with centralised logging.
