Why companies are particularly at risk now - and how the DEFENDERBOX can help
Vacation time also means attack time - at least from the point of view of cyber criminals. While the IT departments in many companies are working with a low headcount, hackers strike in a targeted manner.
A recent analysis by Stoïk shows: Over 50 % of attacks on tourism and leisure companies occur in summer. And the risk has long since also affected sectors outside the travel industry.
Because:
- Updates are postponed,
- IT systems are insufficiently monitored,
- Responsibilities are unclear,
- unused accesses remain active.
With the DEFENDERBOX we offer a proactive security solution for small and medium-sized enterprises and SMEs that is just as alert in summer as it is in winter.
Our technology automatically detects security gaps, documents vulnerabilities in an audit-proof manner - and provides specific recommendations for action.
10 simple measures for more safety in summertime:
- Train employees
- Activate 2FA
- Renew passwords
- Use early warning systems
- Check backups
- Restrict access rights
- Update software
- Have emergency plans ready
- Inform customers
- Deactivate unused systems
