Securing your business against any type of misuse, both external and internal, goes beyond a standard firewall. Guarantee adherence to usage policies and protect your systems from external threats.
Protect your systems from external attacks and help your team comply with data access policies. There is a mistaken belief that attackers won't go after small businesses but they are often the most vulnerable due to inadequate network security. Don't leave your business wide open to phishing and fraud, malware and ransomware, data theft, corporate espionage, botnets and more.
Comprehensive security measures to help protect company resources from a variety of threats and malicious activities, going beyond the scope of a basic firewall. These measures work to lessen the risks from both external and internal sources from accessing prohibited content, simultaneously helping to meet compliance standards and shield the system from external threats.

A cyberattack is an attempt by a miscreant to breach the security of a computer system or network in order to steal sensitive information, disrupt services, or cause damage to the targeted system or business. This could be for reasons of notoriety or prowess, for political reasons, to expose information, to damage reputations and more commonly for financial benefit - to sell data or for a ransom payout. Cybersecurity and cyber defense refer to the broad strategies of protecting against these cyber threats. This may involve a combination of hardware and software, risk assessments, vulnerability assessments, threat intelligence, and other tactics to ensure that your business can identify, prevent, and respond to cyber threats.
Multiple facets of cybersecurity work together, including: (1) Network security with segregation and firewalls; (2) Hosted application security, identity and network access control; (3) Endpoint protection for users' devices; (4) Data storage security and data loss prevention (DLP); (5) Monitoring, analysis and event management; (6) Disaster recovery and business continuity planning.
Whilst Gwhizz Networks focuses on the technical side of your cybersecurity, there are other human considerations which need to be made. These include instructing employees on their responsibilities, publishing best practices policies for and incident response procedures for employees to follow, conducting cyber threats training and awareness, identify and managing risks, physical security measures, and ensuring legal and regulatory compliance. Combined with appropriate technology, this will reduce the risk of security breaches and protect assets, reputation, and the bottom line.
This is of course a very difficult question to answer without context, for example the size and complexity of your business, the type of data you are protecting, and the level of risk you are willing to tolerate. A commonly cited figure is an average 10% of the IT budget. It's also important to realise that cybersecurity is not only a one-time expense, but requires an ongoing investment; as the threat landscape evolves, businesses must continue to invest in updates and technologies to keep pace. The budget needs to be weighed up against the potential costs of a breach, which might come financially (from loss of profits, ransom demands, or data protection fines), from disruption to the normal business activities, from damage to customer trust and brand reputation, or from spend to clean up infected systems and restore data.
