6 cybersecurity solutions that every company needs

6 Cybersecurity Solutions Every Company Needs

1. Firewall

The firewall is the basic element of an organization's security architecture. It acts as the wall and gate of the castle — blocking unauthorized connections and allowing approved ones. However, while essential, it is not sufficient on its own, as attackers can exploit other levels where firewalls cannot act.

2. Antivirus / Antimalware

If the firewall is the wall, the antivirus is the police force, constantly scanning to detect and neutralize malicious programs that try to enter or have entered the network or devices.
Although modern antivirus tools are advanced, attackers continuously develop new malware, so relying solely on antivirus can leave you vulnerable.

3. Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)

A SIEM system collects, centralizes, and analyzes data from all other security tools. Without it, alerts may go unnoticed or be left unaddressed. SIEM ensures all information is in one place, helping identify the most critical incidents and providing context to prevent or stop attacks.

4. Identity Management (IdM)

Having secure locks is pointless if the wrong people have the keys. An Identity Management solution organizes all users, assigns the necessary permissions, and ensures no one has access to resources they shouldn’t. It also removes permissions promptly when they are no longer required.

5. Continuity Plan (Data and Infrastructure Backups)

In cybersecurity, zero risk does not exist. Organizations must prepare for incidents that could interrupt operations, delete data, or destroy facilities. Updated backups and well-defined recovery plans are essential to resume operations quickly after a disaster.

6. Awareness

Even the strongest security infrastructure fails if employees unknowingly invite threats inside. Staff must understand and apply basic security measures, recognize the value of information, and protect access credentials.
Awareness turns employees into active defenders, preventing accidents and blocking attackers from causing harm to the organization or themselves.
