Network Security

Many small to medium-sized businesses assume they aren't targets for cyberattacks, thinking hackers only go after large companies. In reality, attacks are rising as hackers become more advanced, and small businesses are often exposed due to weak security measures. Studies show many small business networks are compromised each year. With advancing technology, these risks continue to grow. A strong security solution that protects data and networks is essential. It helps minimize threats and lets you focus on growing your business confidently.

There are a number of ways Greenlight Tek helps to ensure that you are at minimum risk:

  • Updates – Keeping computers and network equipment updated is one of the most effective steps to preventing a possible network security issue.

  • Firewall – Many small businesses lack a proper firewall, often confusing it with a basic router, leaving the network vulnerable.

  • Passwords – Password and password protection are proving to be an area that needs attention when weak or default passwords make it easy for hackers to access networks. Strong, unique passwords are essential.

  • Antivirus/Antispam – These tools are crucial for protecting against viruses, malware, and other threats before damage is done.

No matter the size of your business, network security is a definite requirement for every business in the digital age. If you are worried or unsure of where to start with an internal security audit, our team can help get you on track.

FAQs About Our Cybersecurity Services

What are the biggest cybersecurity threats businesses face today?

Businesses face ransomware, phishing attacks, insider threats, weak passwords, unsecured devices, and data breaches. Cybercriminals constantly evolve their tactics, making proactive security measures essential to protect sensitive information and prevent financial and operational damage.

How often should businesses update their cybersecurity measures?

Cybersecurity should be reviewed continuously, with major updates at least annually. Regular software patches, employee training, and security assessments help keep defenses strong against emerging threats and evolving attack methods.

What is multi-layered security, and why is it important?

Multi-layered security combines different protective measures—firewalls, endpoint protection, encryption, and access controls—to defend against cyber threats. No single solution is foolproof, so multiple layers reduce risk and block attacks from different angles.

How can businesses protect against phishing attacks?

Employee awareness training is crucial. Additionally, businesses should use email filtering, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and endpoint security tools to detect and block phishing attempts before they compromise sensitive data.

What is the dark web, and why does it matter for cybersecurity?

The dark web is an underground part of the internet where cybercriminals sell stolen data. Monitoring the dark web for exposed credentials can help businesses prevent breaches before stolen information is exploited.

How does zero-trust security improve cybersecurity?

Zero-trust security requires continuous verification of users, devices, and applications before granting access. This prevents unauthorized access, limits potential breaches, and ensures only trusted users interact with sensitive systems.

What should businesses do after a data breach?

Immediately contain the breach, identify affected systems, notify relevant parties, and implement stronger security measures. Conduct a post-incident review to prevent future breaches and improve security resilience.

Why is compliance important in cybersecurity?

Compliance ensures businesses follow industry regulations designed to protect sensitive data. Failing to comply can lead to fines, legal consequences, and reputational damage, making it essential to maintain secure practices.

How can businesses secure remote employees?

Use VPNs, enforce multi-factor authentication, require strong passwords, and implement endpoint security solutions. Regular training ensures employees recognize cyber threats and follow best security practices when working remotely.

How does cybersecurity impact business continuity?

A strong cybersecurity strategy prevents disruptions from cyberattacks, protecting data and operations. Without proper security, businesses risk downtime, financial loss, and reputational damage that can severely impact long-term success.
