As the dynamic landscape of the internet and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) increases, we have all noticed the rise in cyber-attacks. Data protection has become a top priority in the way business is viewed. We've observed several key trends and practices that we've actively incorporated into our strategy to help protect not only ourselves but our clients as well.
Our approach can be summarized in two key aspects. Firstly, we've taken proactive measures to safeguard our data. We've acquired a comprehensive cyber insurance policy, ensuring that we are well-equipped to manage any potential data breaches or cyberattacks efficiently. Additionally, our IT partner plays a pivotal role in this endeavor. They've implemented a robust monitoring system that proactively alerts us to any breaches, system shutdowns or glitches, providing us with real-time insights into our system's security status.
Secondly, we adhere to stringent data retention policies, ensuring that we only maintain essential data for the necessary duration. This not only minimizes our data-related risks but also aligns with best practices for data protection and privacy. Furthermore, our network is fortified by SentinelOne, an advanced AI-driven security system, enhancing our defense against potential threats. For email security, we rely on Microsoft Exchange, which is fortified with DMARC authentication protocols such as DKIM and SPF, actively rejecting unauthorized emails and reinforced by Microsoft's security policies. Data backup is handled securely through Arcserve, employing AES 256-bit encryption and password authentication to ensure the integrity of our stored information.
Data protection builds trust with our clients, assuring them that their data is handled with the utmost care and is safeguarded against potential security threats.
