A company’s data helps it plan activities, take important decisions, and operate better regularly for its optimal performance. However, cybercriminals are becoming quite active with every passing year, and they target and attack this kind of data for their own benefits. This can cause loss of critical data and loss of reputation, leading to the loss of millions of dollars.  

Most of them even try to steal critical company information covertly. The good news is that there are several devices on the market, like iProtect 1216 which helps in detecting all kinds of RF eavesdropping devices, even those that transfer information over wireless networks, to protect confidential data from ending up in the hands of cyber perpetrators.

We have also listed several different kinds of equipment and tools in this article that can significantly help your cyber security. Keep reading!

1.    Anti-Malware Tools

Different kinds of malicious software such as spyware, viruses, ransomware, adware, and Trojan can infiltrate your network to either steal crucial data or gain unauthorized access to your systems.

For this, an anti-malware or antivirus software can help detect and prevent malware from entering your system. With the top-notch quality ones, you can even remove current malware in your system and fix the damage as well.

If you want to introduce a unique software into your network, anti-malware software will test it individually to make sure it doesn’t corrupt the entire network.

2.    Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)

Whether your employees work remotely or you have branches in other distant areas, it’s better to invest in a VPN to ensure they don’t have to worry about losing important data while working.

A VPN conceals your IP address, making it almost impossible for hackers to gain illegal access to your network and disrupt your operations.

3.    Email Security Technologies

Most cybercriminals try to get into a company’s network by email. As a plethora of emails is exchanged every day from an organization’s system, it can be easier to send a malicious attachment or link in an email, leading to identity theft, phishing, and hacking.

An email security tool prevents, detects, and blocks any kinds of viruses from emails and some of them may also help in blocking malicious software that has become dormant in your email for a while.

4.    Data Loss Preventing (DLP)

If you, as an entity, suffer from sensitive data loss, it can damage your company severely. Hence, a tool like DLP can prevent your confidential data from getting corrupt or unauthorized access by hackers.

It works by protecting your company’s data from leaving the network either via file transfers, emails, messages, or website forms. It keeps identifying the most sensitive information and prevents any kind of unusual transfers.

5.    Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems

These systems scan the entire network rather than individual files in order to prevent and block any kinds of attacks, as they are programmed with a database of known threats.

Intrusion detection systems (IDS) and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) work slightly differently. IDS monitors and detects any type of malware, whereas, IPS prevents them. However, sometimes, IPS may also be involved in detecting malicious software before it enters the system.

6.    Firewalls

Firewalls have a pre-defined set of rules to make sure they monitor all kinds of traffic on the company’s network and know which kind of traffic poses threat and should be blocked immediately.

Hence, firewalls help in blocking malicious threats and even cybercriminals from gaining unauthorized access to the network. Different kinds of firewalls can suit your organizational needs, such as proxy firewalls, circuit-level gateways, stateful inspection firewalls, and next-generation firewalls.

Username & email enumeration – how a stray status-code reveals valid accounts.
Password spraying – low-and-slow guesses that evade basic lockouts.
Credential stuffing – lightning-fast reuse of breach combos at scale.
MFA / session-token bypass – sliding past second factors with stolen cookies.
