Every other day there’s stories of companies falling foul to cybercrime. Unfortunately, this is a problem that can affect businesses of all sizes. However, its impact is most devastating for small to medium companies who struggle to recover both financially and in terms of their reputation.
In the long-term, hiring an expert team for your cybersecurity can potentially save you money, along with a great deal of stress.
Cybersecurity is evolving all the time in the United Kingdom, having to develop to meet a wide range of threats and challenges. AI is now posing new threats when it comes to fraud both for companies and individuals.
Investing in cybersecurity has never been more important.
The UK government has allocated significant funds towards cybersecurity, with the National Cyber Security Strategy 2016-2021 investing £1.9 billion. The 2022 update to the National Cyber Strategy also aims to strengthen the UK’s resilience against cyber threats.
Using a company like Silver Cloud Technologies means you’ll have a skilled team to safeguard your business at all times. This is much cheaper and easier than finding an in-house team. The UK faces a shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals, so companies need to offer more competitive salaries to attract the right talent.
Cyber crime rose significantly during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Britain has seen a rise in cybercrime, including ransomware attacks, phishing, and fraud.
The Cyber Crime Unit within the National Crime Agency (NCA) focuses on tackling serious and organised cybercrime.
Brexit has also had implications for cybersecurity, particularly in terms of data sharing and collaboration with EU countries. It’s vital that the UK maintains strong cybersecurity ties with Europe and other international partners.
Silver Cloud Technologies is always up to date on the latest threats and will ensure that we cover all your vulnerabilities.
Our company can help you meet GDPR compliance.
The UK complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which sets strict data protection and privacy standards for individuals within the European Union (EU). This regulation was initially introduced in 2018. Post-Brexit, the UK has adopted its own version of GDPR.
Silver Cloud Technologies offers exceptional protection for small to medium businesses.
We will ensure the security of your network and devices. Our company provides technologies from the following trusted providers, including:
Beyond Encryption, which offers a range of features and benefits for enhancing security in digital communications. That includes end-to-end encryption, which means messages are encrypted on the sender's device and only decrypted on the recipient's device. This can protect data from interception. Beyond Encryption helps organisations comply with data protection regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and others by securing sensitive information.
You can verify the identity of a sender, ensuring that messages are not tampered with or altered during transmission. Digital signatures also add another layer of security by enabling senders to sign documents digitally, providing proof of authenticity and integrity.
Users have greater control over their data, including the ability to revoke access or set expiration dates on messages. Designed to be easy to use, with intuitive features that do not require technical expertise.
Beyond Encryption can be integrated with existing email platforms and workflows, minimising disruption to daily operations.
Switch (Secure Data Exchange). Switch (Secure Data Exchange) offers several advantages for securely sharing data across different platforms and organisations. It
employs robust encryption methods to ensure data is protected both in transit and at rest. You will enjoy first class access controls, ensuring only authorised users can access sensitive information. It ensures the integrity of data by verifying that the data received is exactly what was sent, without any alterations.
Switch can automate data exchange processes, reducing manual intervention and the associated risks of human error. It allows for real-time or near-real-time data exchange, improving the timeliness of information sharing.
Switch can often be integrated with your existing IT infrastructure, including legacy systems, without requiring significant changes.
Switch solutions are often designed with high availability and fault tolerance in mind, ensuring continuous operation even in the event of hardware or software failures.
In short, using Switch (Secure Data Exchange) can significantly enhance your company’s security, efficiency, and reliability of data exchange processes, making it a valuable tool for organisations that need to share sensitive information securely.
Office 365. Microsoft 365 is a versatile and powerful platform that can significantly boost productivity, collaboration, and security for both individuals and organisations. Its comprehensive suite of tools, cloud-based accessibility, and regular updates make it a valuable investment for anyone looking to improve their productivity and workflow. Our services include the monitoring of the Office 365 / cloud environment, DNS protection and server / endpoint protection.
