Boosting Your Network Security Against Attacks

ATTUS Presents “Avoiding External Penetration and Social Engineering Lapses – Boosting Your Network Security Against Attacks” by Tyler Leet, Senior Information Security Consultant.
 

Today, business processes and systems are intricately and inescapably intertwined. This interconnectivity has created huge efficiencies and completely changed business models from even a decade ago. The internet, alone, has opened an entirely new avenue of interchange between you and your customers. With this growing reliance on technology, has your network security kept pace? 

 

Threats from unethical attackers occur everyday but despite that no one can imagine returning to manual processes. Nixing technology clearly isn’t the answer; the solution is reducing your network’s vulnerability. In this White Paper, ATTUS explains the existing threats and answers your most pressing questions about how to practically and affordably protect your systems, your sensitive data and your customers’ personal information. 

 

1.     Do you fully understand your Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) obligations to protect your customers’ confidential information?

2.     Are you aware of the various motives and methods of hackers trying to get at that confidential information?

3.     Could your systems or personnel detect an external penetration attack in process?

4.     Do your employees understand the underhanded methods that attackers use to obtain valuable information like usernames and passwords?

5.     Have you considered the consequences of lapses in your Information Security Program (ISP)?

6.     What is the best way to test the effectiveness of your ISP and what is involved in an External Penetration or Social Engineering Test?
