Organizational Cybersecurity is only as strong as its weakest third-party link

Image
The recent Harrods breach affecting 430,000 customers serves as a critical reminder that organizational cybersecurity is only as strong as its weakest third-party link. As cybersecurity and vendor security specialists, we've observed that third-party breaches now account for a significant portion of enterprise security incidents—yet many organizations still lack comprehensive vendor risk management protocols. This incident underscores three essential elements every organization must prioritize: 1. Continuous Third-Party Risk Assessment - It's no longer sufficient to vet vendors during onboarding.

Contractual Security Requirements - Clear security standards, breach notification timelines, and liability frameworks must be embedded in vendor contracts. Compliance shouldn't be optional—it should...

SOC + SIEM =A game-changer for your IT security

Image
  SOC (Security Operations Center) and SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) are essential for robust cybersecurity. SOC is like a 24/7 guard, continuously monitoring and responding to threats.

When combined, they offer unparalleled protection: SOC identifies threats in real-time, while SIEM makes sense of the complex data to uncover hidden risks. Century Solutions Group harnesses this powerful duo, providing tailored SOC and SIEM solutions to protect your business, detect threats early, and ensure your IT infrastructure remains secure and resilient.   Read more: https://centurygroup.net/the-essential-role-of-soc-and-siem-in-modern-cybersecurity-why-every-business-needs-these-it-solutions/   #SOC #SIEM #CyberDefense #cyberdefense #cybersecurity #cybercrime #infosec #cyberawareness #cyberattack #networksecurity #dataprotecti...

Benefits of Cloud Technology for Small Business

Image
  In today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, small businesses need to leverage the power of technology to stay ahead. Cloud computing has emerged as a game-changer for small businesses, offering a range of benefits that can transform the way they operate.   One of the primary advantages of cloud technology for small businesses is cost savings. Traditional IT infrastructure requires significant investments in hardware, software licenses, and maintenance. Cloud computing eliminates the need for such upfront expenses by providing a pay-as-you-go model. Small businesses can scale their operations up or down as needed, paying only for the resources they use. This flexibility allows them to allocate their financial resources more efficiently and invest in other critical areas of their business.   Another significant benefit of the cloud is improved collaboration and communication. With cloud-based applications and services, team members can access files, documents, and to...
