However, many don&#8217;t understand that certain companies, like tech startups and other IP-focused sectors, are especially vulnerable targets.\u202f<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Threat actors increasingly seek out companies that are asset rich and whose security stacks, strategies, and cybersecurity teams typically aren&#8217;t as strong as those from established companies of similar market cap.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Crypto.com, Dropbox, SendGrid, Evernote, Mt. Gox, and CodeSpace are just a few recent examples of tech startups hit by cyber-attacks. High-growth companies often hit by attacks are laser-focused on sales, getting products out the door, getting talent in the door, and raising funds. These companies often believe they&#8217;re too small and &#8220;under the radar&#8221; to be in the crosshairs of would-be attackers. The first indication that they might be wrong in that belief is all too often also their &#8220;worst nightmare&#8221; scenario.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Companies with a less than complete understanding of <a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/security-information-event-management\/category\/best-practices\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">cybersecurity issues and best practices<\/a> typically have weak defenses, which makes them an easy mark. Consider some of the cybersecurity gaps that can make an organization an easier target for attackers:\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Poor Physical Inventory Awareness:<\/strong> A surprising number of companies don&#8217;t know what digital assets they have and need to secure. It&#8217;s impossible to secure assets the security and IT teams don&#8217;t know about.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Poor Software Inventory Awareness<\/strong>: Equally surprising are gaps in knowledge about what&#8217;s running on organizational assets, which is essential to securing them from threats like Log4j.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Sporadic Vulnerability Management:<\/strong> Many startups treat cybersecurity as a one-time activity rather than a continuous process. Attackers probe constantly and regularly update their tools and techniques, so defenses must be frequently updated\u2014vulnerability scanning, application, operating systems patching, and fixing misconfigurations must be conducted continuously.\u202f<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Absence of Preventative Controls:<\/strong> Many startups will purchase <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/security-information-event-management\/mdr-buyers-guide-managed-detection-and-response\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MDR<\/a><\/strong>, EDR, and XDR solutions that are not designed to stop an attack but merely to detect one. This is wasted money and time. Without preventative controls, an attack will eventually succeed, increasing the number of attacks. We frequently hear comments from security pros like this: &#8220;The cybersecurity industry is not trying to stop attacks. Instead, it&#8217;s profiting from detecting them when easy counter-measures could be implemented.&#8221;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Absence of Multi-Factor Authentication:<\/strong> The network firewall protecting the perimeter is long dead. Passwords are compromised and not a viable layer of protection, yet too many startups still rely on username and password schemes as their only line of defense in cloud-only companies.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Absence of Next-Gen AV Configured to Block Execution:<\/strong> Most companies still use legacy AV or no AV. Others are using next-gen AV but haven&#8217;t configured it to block the execution of malware. This is lunacy, and it means the organization can stop a ransomware attack but instead chooses merely to detect it.\u202f<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"none\"><strong>Outdated, Unsecured Assets:<\/strong> Too many organizations leave online artifacts such as &#8220;test&#8221; pages and other outdated, abandoned assets that give attackers open, unprotected entry points into the organization.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Taking the First Essential Cybersecurity Steps<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Creating a robust, cyber-secure environment takes many steps and requires constant vigilance and adaptation\u2014so much so that we could look at 30 steps to get a company started building their offenses. But here are five steps to consider starting with:<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">1) Consider Cybersecurity as a Service (CSaaS)<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">There are many guidelines like the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cyvatar.ai\/understanding-nist-cybersecurity-framework\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">NIST framework for cybersecurity<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\"> or the CIS Security Controls, V8 that organizations can use when setting up their cyber-secure defense. Still, those guidelines aren&#8217;t easily followed by understaffed startups. It&#8217;s well worth considering CSaaS managed security services that incorporate asset discovery, threat mitigation, and resolution, but choosing the CSaaS service is essential. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Most first-generation managed security services providers (MSSPs) specialize in alerting companies to cyber problems but don&#8217;t effectively prioritize and mitigate those threats. As a side note, beware of MSSPs that use &#8220;alert storms&#8221; to threaten and upsell.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Look for a CSaaS provider that starts with a solid cybersecurity strategy. Securing a company against cyber-attacks takes much more than merely adopting a few tools and technologies and reacting <em>after<\/em>\u00a0a threat has breached defenses. Also, look for a CSaaS provider with expertise in the regulatory requirements your organization must meet.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">2) Develop a Cybersecurity Risk Analysis<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Every company&#8217;s risk profile and threat landscape are unique. It&#8217;s essential to know the kinds of threats the organization faces, its vulnerabilities (and every company has them), the likely impacts and costs of various cyber-attacks, and the most crucial assets and most at risk.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">This analysis needs to include an audit of all physical infrastructure, such as computers, devices, and other hardware, that provide the surface for cyber attackers to attack. It must include both company-owned and user-owned mobile devices and network devices.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">It must also include a thorough inventory of the software the company uses. Remember that attackers are always on the hunt for vulnerable versions of software that are unpatched and easily exploited. <\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Importantly, look for any &#8220;shadow IT&#8221;\u2014resources that aren&#8217;t managed by or known to the IT or cybersecurity teams. These resources are often open portals for threat actors.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">These are some of the significant components of your threatscape, and knowing the landscape will help you make many decisions that companies otherwise struggle with.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">3) Build a Cybersecurity Culture<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">The risk analysis informs the organization&#8217;s decisions, but it also needs to educate its employees.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Tools and technologies are essential, but they&#8217;ll never be enough to protect an enterprise. It&#8217;s often said that the greatest cybersecurity vulnerability in any company can be found between the seat and the keyboard. It&#8217;s the human element: people are often the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/cyvatar.ai\/understanding-nist-cybersecurity-framework\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">weakest link in cybersecurity<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\">, and enforcing cyber-aware strategies and habits can be a monumental effort.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Amnesty is crucial to reporting, too. If an employee unwittingly makes a mistake, make it easy for them to report it so that defenses can be rallied. That&#8217;s where a promise of amnesty is essential: it&#8217;s only human nature that an employee would balk at reporting a potential problem if they think it will cost them their job, a pay raise, a growth opportunity, or reputation.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">By educating employees on your cybersecurity risk analysis, they&#8217;ll be informed of the threats cyber-attacks pose and be better equipped to<span data-contrast=\"none\"> be part of the solution. That includes having the founders and executives participate\u2014if they&#8217;re reticent or feel too busy, sharing a few examples of &#8220;whale phishing&#8221; should help encourage them.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;335559685&quot;:720}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">4) Secure Configuration of Hardware &amp; Software Assets<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">The default configuration for newly purchased hardware and software is set for ease of installation and use, not security.<\/span> <span data-contrast=\"none\">Default accounts and passwords and pre-configured settings are easily exploited. Set (or be sure your CSaaS provider sets) secure device and systems configurations.
