Frequently Asked Questions About Our IT Security Services

As a set of cybersecurity strategies, IT security works to prevent unauthorized access to an organization’s assets, including its computers, networks and data.  IT security maintains the integrity and confidentiality of any sensitive information an organization holds and blocks cybercriminals’ access to that information. 

IT security aims to prevent the loss of:

  • Data availability.
  • Data integrity.
  • Data confidentiality

In fact, 93% of companies that experience a cyber breach have significant losses, from downtime to loss of critical data. As you research IT security further, you’ll discover that most security practices and controls can be traced back to preventing losses in one or more of these areas.

IT security consulting, often referred to as cybersecurity consulting, is a specialized field within the IT industry. It focuses on evaluating the security risks and vulnerabilities of an organization’s computer systems, networks, and software. Security consultants, who might also be called information security consultants, network security consultants, or database security consultants, design and implement tailored solutions to safeguard against cyberattacks and other digital threats.

IT security consultants specialize in protecting organizations’ digital assets and information from cyber threats. Their responsibilities typically include:

  • Risk assessment and vulnerability analysis.
  • Security strategy and planning.
  • Implementation and management of security solutions.
  • Security awareness and training.
  • Compliance and governance.
  • Incident response and remediation.
  • Staying up to date with the threat landscape and IT security trends.

It’s important to remember that cyber threats aren’t just something big corporations and governments need to worry about. In fact, 46% of all cyber attacks are aimed at small businesses. Unfortunately, evidence shows that small businesses are more vulnerable to attacks, oftentimes because they may lack the security resources to protect themselves as well as they should. 

Here are a few questions to ask any IT security provider you’re considering:

  • What is your experience in our industry?
  • What compliance frameworks do you have experience with?
  • Can you provide case studies or references that demonstrate your success?
  • What security-related certifications have you earned?
  • Do you have a team of in-house security experts?
  • Can you come onsite if needed?
  • How do you balance the need for security with operational efficiencies?
  • What cybersecurity tools do you use?
  • If a cyber incident takes my business offline, can you assist in getting us back up and running?
