Cybersecurity Software for Small Business: 10 Tools You Need To Protect Your Digital Assets (4 of 6)

Logging and log monitoring

One of the most effective ways to identify threats before they happen or determine how they breached your system should this occur is through the use of log monitoring software. Computer activity is time-stamped, allowing the network administrators to pinpoint the precise time of the attack and match it up with the activity of the devices or users that resulted in the attack or breach.

Endpoint protection

Does your team include remote employees? If so, endpoint protection is a must! These tools ensure that their personal computers and smartphones are secure when remote staff connect to your business’s network. There’s no telling what they’re using these devices for when on their personal time, leaving them potentially prone to malware and other threats. But with endpoint protection, they have an additional layer of defense when they access work-related accounts and portals.
