DO YOU OWN A BUSINESS TAT DEPENDS MAINLY ON COMPUTERS AND THE INTERNET?
DO YOU RUN A BUSINESS WHERE YOUR IMPORTANT AND CONFIDENTIAL DATA IS STORED ON A DATABASE THAT CAN BE ACCESSED EITHER MANUALLY FROM A SERVER ROOM OR ANY PC IN THE BUILDING OR EVEN BY THE INTERNET VIA THE SERVER?
DO HAVE IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT CAN FALL INTO THE WRONG HAND BY CYBER THREATS?
This is where a Computer Security Analyst will come in handy.
They will access your business and all its equipment and work daily on protecting your business against any internal or external threats like:
- HACKERS: these are usually experts that can hack (break into any computer or server via the internet) to either steal information, destroy your data system and delete it, place viruses (like worms and trojan horses) that can also destroy or disrupt your business for you competitors, or do it for ransom whether for cash, shares or even for you to release some information free to the public or just for the fun of it.
These are the most important and dangerous of all security risks and that’s why majority of the Computer Security Analyst team members are ex or rehabilitated hackers themselves or specifically trained in tracking your systems for these types of hackers.
They will will keep track of the users of all systems connected to your servers as well as all PC’s and laptops, even cellphones that use your server and follow patterns and charts programs that can infiltrate any specific strange or suspicious movements of data and or access of data, especially if downloaded data.
Using this information they can access your system and its susceptibility to hackers and plug leaks or advise you on how to plug these leaks and what to about the offenders.
These type of analysts have changed over the years from the computer geeks with their pocket protectors and nerdy looking unfashionable, immediately spotted persons to someone who might pass off as any normal employee or even a manager or CEO, male or female and can blend in anywhere and in this way can infiltrate a scam from the inside without even accessing your PC or server as the hacker or offender has a tendency to speak openly and even too much when it comes to the ” sexy good looking people” to impress them
So have these analysts is important and they can bring in Cyber Threat Analyst to take it further from there if the need arises.
