Network security is the practice of protecting an business’s network infrastructure from unauthorised access, data breaches, malware attacks, and insider threats. It encompasses a range of technologies, policies, and procedures designed to safeguard network resources, data, and communications from cyber threats.
Network security plays a critical role in safeguarding organisations’ network infrastructure, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data and services.
With the increasing reliance on digital technologies and interconnected networks, the stakes for network security have never been higher. A breach in network security can have severe consequences, including financial losses, reputational damage, regulatory penalties, and disruption to business operations.
If you and your team are concerned about the cost, complexity and awareness of the growing threat to your small business, contact us today to schedule a complimentary security gap analysis with an expert engineer.
Businesses face several challenges in securing their network infrastructure, including:
Hackers and cyber criminals constantly seek to exploit vulnerabilities in network systems to gain unauthorised access to sensitive data and resources.
The proliferation of data breaches poses a significant threat to organisations, resulting in the exposure of confidential information, financial loss, and damage to reputation.
Malicious software, such as viruses, worms, and ransomware, can infiltrate network systems, causing disruption, data loss, and financial harm.
Insider threats, whether intentional or unintentional, pose a significant risk to network security. Employees, contractors, or business partners may misuse their privileges or inadvertently expose sensitive information, leading to security breaches.
We have two comprehensive solutions that are designed to protect your network and IT Infrastructure, such as your servers and firewalls, against the growing threat of cyber attacks. See below for a brief summary and find out more about each solution by clicking on “Learn More”.
Our SOC solution provides 24/7 monitoring, threat detection, analysis, incident response and reporting. This integrates directly with our EDR and SIEM solutions.
Our SIEM works with our SOC to support log collection, event correlation, real-time monitoring, threat detection, incident response & compliance reporting.
At Finch Technical Solutions, we take a proactive and comprehensive approach to network security, recognising the importance of protecting organisations’ network infrastructure from evolving cyber threats. Our approach is built on several key pillars:
We employ continuous monitoring and threat intelligence feeds to detect and respond to security threats in real-time. Our Security Operations Centre (SOC) monitors your network environment 24/7, analysing network traffic, logs, and security events for signs of suspicious activity. By leveraging threat intelligence from industry sources and security partners, we stay informed about emerging threats and adapt our security measures accordingly.
In the event of a security incident, our incident response team is ready to spring into action. We have well-defined incident response procedures in place to contain, mitigate, and remediate security breaches effectively Our team conducts thorough investigations to determine the root cause of the incident and implements remediation measures to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future.
We ensure that our network security solutions are aligned with relevant regulatory requirements and industry standards. Whether you operate in a regulated industry or are subject to specific data protection regulations, such as GDPR or HIPAA, we can help you navigate compliance requirements and implement the necessary security controls to protect your network infrastructure and sensitive data.
Intrusion detection is the process of monitoring network traffic to identify and respond to unauthorised access attempts, suspicious activities, or potential security threats. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) analyse network packets and system logs for signs of malicious behaviour, such as unauthorised access attempts, malware activity, or unusual network traffic patterns. When an intrusion is detected, the IDS generates alerts or triggers automated responses to mitigate the threat and prevent further damage.
Vulnerability management is the process of identifying, assessing, prioritising, and remediating security vulnerabilities in network infrastructure and systems. It involves regularly scanning network devices, servers, and applications for known vulnerabilities, applying patches and updates to address security flaws, and implementing security controls to mitigate risks. Vulnerability management is essential for network security as it helps businesses proactively identify and address weaknesses before they can be exploited by attackers to compromise network security and access sensitive data.
Security monitoring involves the continuous monitoring and analysis of network traffic, logs, and security events to detect and respond to security threats in real-time. Security monitoring tools, such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, monitor network activity for signs of suspicious behaviour, unauthorised access attempts, or security policy violations. By proactively monitoring network traffic and security events, businesses can identify and respond to security incidents quickly, minimising the impact of cyber threats and preventing data breaches.
Incident response procedures for network security incidents typically involve several key steps, including detection, containment, eradication, recovery, and post-incident analysis.
When a security incident occurs, businesses must quickly detect and contain the threat to prevent further damage. This may involve isolating affected systems, blocking malicious traffic, and revoking compromised credentials.
Once the incident is contained, organisations can focus on eradicating the threat, recovering affected systems and data, and conducting a thorough post-incident analysis to identify lessons learned and improve future incident response efforts.
Finch Technical Solutions offers a comprehensive range of network security services to help SMEs protect their network infrastructure from cyber threats. Our services include intrusion detection and prevention, vulnerability management, security monitoring, incident response planning, and ongoing support and consultation. With our expertise and tailored solutions, we can help organisations enhance their network security posture, mitigate risks, and safeguard sensitive data from unauthorised access and cyber attacks.
