How to deal with cyber attacks?

Today's network attack methods and security vulnerabilities are constantly being strengthened and updated, and the network has become very vulnerable. For most enterprises, network attacks may be out of reach, but tomorrow and accidents, you don't know which will come firstarrival.How to effectively strengthen the prevention of network attacks?

In recent years, network security has gradually become active in the public eye, and the occurrence of various major network security incidents has also made everyone familiar with its importance.With the rapid development of the Internet, cyber threats have also become a serious challenge.Today's cyber attack methods and security vulnerabilities are constantly being strengthened and updated, and the network has become very vulnerable. For most enterprises, cyber attacks may be out of reach, but tomorrow or unexpectedly, you don't know which will come first.How to effectively strengthen the prevention of network attacks?

1. Deploy the appropriate security equipment

Enterprises deploy corresponding network security equipment according to their own security conditions.If you encounter problems in operation and maintenance, you can consider deploying a bastion machine; if you want to automate vulnerability detection on a regular basis, you can consider deploying a vulnerability scanning system; to further strengthen WEB application protection, you can consider deploying a WEB application firewall...

The more network security equipment is not the better, the purchase should be based on the actual needs.

Second, backup IT assets at any time

Cyber ​​attacks are always caught off guard and often bring "major blows" to the important assets and information of the enterprise. When IT assets encounter network security problems, they should maintain the habit of backing up important assets and do it in different places.Backup to ensure data integrity.Why do IT assets need to be backed up offsite? Ransomware attacks would be the best illustration.

Three, formulate relevant network security mechanisms and policies

Relevant network security mechanisms should be formulated within the enterprise, and network security issues cannot be ignored, which will involve the business development of the enterprise.Often people tend to ignore things, more prone to error.In the construction of network security, the network security management system is also essential. It can restrain the internal personnel and be orderly when problems arise.

Fourth, conduct "exercise" on cyber attack response scenarios

No one can predict any emergencies, but if the possible situations are rehearsed in advance, the emergency plan can be prepared at all times when an emergency security event comes.The "Network Security Law" also puts forward relevant requirements for emergency plans:

5. Strengthen employees' awareness of network security

Although corporate managers have sufficient cybersecurity awareness, employees also need to be strengthened.Information leakage, data loss and other situations occur from time to time, and most of these situations are caused by the lack of internal employees' network security awareness.Phishing emails, using weak passwords, and improperly storing data can easily lead to network security problems.Therefore, regular publicity and implementation should be done to train employees on improper use and operation.

6. Regularly conduct security inspections on IT assets

Effective prevention of network attacks requires regular security inspections.Regular physical examination of IT assets can detect problems in time and deal with them in a short time to prevent future troubles.There are many means of security detection, such as vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, code auditing, etc. Enterprises can choose according to their own needs and budgets.

In the Internet age, network security is not optional for enterprises and individuals, but a must have. With the mentality of not attacking if there is no use value, it is better to do a good job in network security construction, after allWho can understand the mind of a hacker?
