Making Cybersecurity a top priority shouldn't drain the budget !!

As the article explains, while large corporations may make the headlines the small to medium sized business take far bigger hits when a breach occurs.  While the amount of data exposed may be smaller, the damage to reputation and the costs in fines and damages hit the bottom line of a small to medium size company much harder.

While insurance can help to alleviate some of the financials costs, it cannot repair the damage done to reputation or customer trust.  The better solution is to implement a system of prevention, protection, and detection along with awareness for employees.  These steps will help to reduce and eliminate in most cases the reason breaches occur.

When implementing any such system there are a number of factors that can make it difficult.  If the products needed are too costly then it won't make financial sense if the company cannot sustain itself with such an added cost to incur the very cost that will result in the business becoming a money losing proposition.  If the products are too complex and too difficult for employees to use or would require major expenses for employees to be trained to use them, it will again result in an untenable situation.

And for reasons just like these, CYPHYX developed the concept of components and the integrated product package.  Components are individual product pieces that can operate as standalone products or can be integrated with other components to form a complete suite tailored to the specific needs of a given customer.

Through components a customer is able to buy only what they need and then put those pieces together to form a solution that fits their problem or need.  This tailored approach also makes the CYPHYX family of products much more cost effective while providing the highest levels of security that fit the specific needs of the customer.

Why Cybersecurity Must Be a Top Priority for Small & Midsize Businesses

The big corporations may grab the headlines, but America's SMBs have the most to lose in the aftermath of a data breach. From Equifax to Under Armour to the recent news from Marriott, it seems that every week brings a new headline regarding a major data or security breach.

For really secure communications, you then need to share a new key each time you want to communicate information that is supposed to be secret. The use of a new key each time is considered to be equivalent to using what cryptographers call a one-time pad. A one-time pad harkens back to the days when an actual encryption key was distributed on paper and a unique sheet of paper was used each time. Because each key is used only once, cracking such encryption is difficult.
