“Cybersecurity is one of the risks facing businesses and governments around the world today. The pandemic accelerated the digitization of processes, which also increased the risks of cyber threats.
This was expressed by Antonio Cáceres, business development manager at Hillstone Networks, who assured that in Colombia “cyber attacks are increasing exponentially, both against large companies and small companies, so it is necessary to protect yourself from danger.”
While cyber threats are believed to target only large companies or the government, small businesses are also at risk of being affected.
“With increasing digitization, they are also at risk for their money, data and IT equipment,” says Cáceres.
It is clear that all these cyber attacks on the database of any company or entity have been increased by the war that has been unleashed between Russia and Ukraine.
“This has been exponential, many of these cybercriminal gangs that were low profile a few years ago have been under constant attack and have even been funded by different governments to obtain internal missions,” the official manager said.
Solutions focused on detecting and mitigating ransomware and malware include artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).
This means that updates against threats are more effective and faster. Both tools allow the detection, analysis, response and mitigation of threats or new viruses that were unknown and vital to strengthen security in any company’s database.
“You can’t protect what isn’t seen, so if you can’t visualize what’s happening within your data networks or how your applications are being used, it will be impossible to protect it, which is why any company that is an expert in cybersecurity needs to do it.” to ensure that this can be made visible for their respective protection,” emphasized Cáceres.
