Cyber crime: a driver of sleepless nights?

Darren_Smith Cyber security is always a top-of-mind topic for our business, back at the height of Covid with everyone working remotely we engaged an IT consultant well versed in security at that time we implemented a lot of security such as ESET, which is great to protect our emails, BitLocker's on all laptops and PCs and generally ensuring we have good protection, he also educates our staff regularly.  Everything we do now we ensure that we check with our expert before looking at say a piece of software, just recently we were looking at a program to put in place however after extensive investigation we felt uncomfortable putting it on due to potential risks. It can make it hard to implement programs that create efficiencies if the risks out way the benefits.  Running a business and making software decisions is a bit like Covid we know it's out there, do we stop going out?  No! but we understand the risks.  My advice is getting expert advice, so you make informed decisions about your business.
