Complete and comprehensive strategies for cyber security, at last

As one of the UK’s leading IT solution and services providers, Softcat has launched a guide identifying the crucial components required to establish a robust strategy for IT security, with valuable insights from in-house cyber security experts.
 
Cyber threats continue to intensify, and the methods of these attacks are constantly evolving. Now more than ever, companies are looking for cyber security information to protect themselves. The Softcat Cyber Security Guide provides solutions to the IT security challenges they face, giving businesses the reassurance that they are well equipped.
 
With the awareness that businesses today want to learn about what ‘good’ looks like, as opposed to what’s ‘bad’, the guide outlines how to create effective cyber defence strategies based on an effective and forward-looking approach that includes:

• Prioritising cyber security actions – identifying and focusing on what’s critical to increase information and computer security
• Developing a solid plan – including how to optimise existing systems, bridge skills gaps and attain required resources
• Securing the supply chain – understanding every customer and supplier in the chain, and working with them to tighten up data sharing 

The guide takes a positive and inclusive approach to cyber security that is rarely seen. Head of Cyber Security Services at Softcat, Matthew Helling, introduces the guide by explaining: “Almost every report, paper or guide based on the issue of cyber security approaches the subject negatively. It’s all about what you’re not doing right.”
 
He goes on to comment: “While there are certainly things to be cautious about, at Softcat we’re more interested in focusing on what our customers are already doing well and what more they could be doing to make further improvements.”
