Tech Talk with alltasksIT | March 2023

Hi there,

The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) received 396 data breach reports between January and June 2022. And 41% of these resulted in a security incident, from ransomware and phishing to stolen credentials and brute force attacks.

While you cannot stop these attacks from occurring altogether, there are some steps you can take to reduce the chances of your business becoming a statistic.

In this month's issue of Tech Talk, I have covered some key tactics you can leverage to strengthen your cyber security posture. These include small things, such as implementing access controls and staying abreast of software updates, to larger tasks, like engaging with a cyber security services provider.

This Thursday, my team and I are hosting a webinar with Sean Lengyel, the founder of Simply SecOps and a cyber security professional with many years of experience in the industry. Sean will discuss the evolving cyber security landscape and tactics for protecting your business from these threats. If you want to attend, visit our registration page and secure your spot.

As always, if you want to know more about any of the tactics discussed in this newsletter, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,

John Koziaris

CEO, alltasksIT

Your assets, reputation and bottom line are all at risk if you do not have protections to reduce the impact of a cyber attack on your business.

Our latest blog covers the importance of cyber security services and their role in protecting your company against modern threats.

Does your business enforce access controls?

If you outsource operations to external service providers, there is some risk of unauthorised personnel accessing critical company data. So, you need controls to regulate who can access what.
