It isn't just big organizations that are at risk from cybercrime. Smaller businesses are vulnerable too, figures from the Small Business Committee suggest 71 percent of cyber attacks target businesses with under 100 employees, and they're less able to afford sophisticated tools to protect themselves.
To address this security company Trustwave is launching a new set of integrated security tools aimed at small and medium enterprises.
The Trustwave SMB Security Toolkit includes anti-virus, vulnerability scanning, security health checks, endpoint security monitoring, credit card data scanning for data loss prevention, file integrity monitoring and more.
Key features include remote access security which monitors and tracks any remote access software -- such as TeamViewer -- installed and enabled on endpoints and provides guidance on best practices for configuring remote access securely. Remote access tools are often an easy point of entry for attackers and a leading cause of data breaches.
There's regular monitoring for malware that may be present on a business website. It also tracks other issues that may affect consumer confidence in the website, such as being listed on a search engine blacklist, domain hijacking, and expired SSL certificates.
It includes mobile security audits and reports on security and compliance of mobile devices to enable proactive defense, and a Point-of-Sale (POS) Tracker monitors POS equipment for tampering and substitution.
"In today's cybercrime environment, taking a check-box approach to security is like using a deadbolt on a door made of straw: technically you've met the requirement but it's not going to stop the bad guys," says Ted McKendall, vice president of product management at Trustwave. "The Trustwave SMB Security Toolkit is a new security-first approach that delivers an integrated set of 13 easy-to-administer security tools to help these targeted businesses secure their business environment, while automating and streamlining the process of achieving PCI DSS compliance".
