With continued and heightened concerns over IT security, Fresh Mango have created “Cyber One” - a package of elements that should form the IT security foundations and Cyber fundamentals of any business’s IT security policy.

We’re often asked “My business is an SME – surely we’re not of interest to hackers?”. We have to advise that hackers don’t discriminate. If your business has some form of connectivity – email, website, server, databases – then you are just as much at risk as high profile companies. In fact SMEs are often deliberately targeted since their systems may be much simpler to “break-in” to compared to bigger companies. Cyber One is a good first step for businesses to getting some basics of IT security in place. With this foundation established, additional cyber security services can be provided, knowing they are built on a solid foundation. Further information on our “next level” cyber security services are available on our dedicated cyber website or on request.

Cyber One – What’s included

Our Cyber One package is designed to provide the cyber fundamentals for businesses, at an affordable price. The breakdown of these IT security foundations is as follows:We conduct weekly patches of your server(s) to ensure any critical security patches from Microsoft and other software providers are in place. This helps to protect your server from the latest known security vulnerabilities.One of the simplest methods for hackers to access your systems is through “Phishing emails”. These emails look legitimate and come with malicious attachments or links. Anti-spam software limits the number of these that will land in your staff email inboxes.A professional AV solution ensures that if viruses do get through to your system, they are quarantined and neutralized immediately.Backing up your IT systems to the cloud is fundamental for so many reasons. From a security perspective, if you are backing up every night, in the event that malicious software (e.g. Ransomware) infects one or more of your computers, it’s simply a matter of wiping the device and restoring from the backup. Our Cloud Backup solution (Neovault) automatically backs up your systems to the Cloud on a daily basis.Maintaining a local backup of your systems in tandem with a Cloud backup system is highly recommended. Should you lose internet connectivity, a local backup ensures you will always have a backup solution available. We provide a local backup device and configure it to automatically backup your data on a daily basis.“I thought you’re trying to protect us from Phishing Emails?!!!”. Yes we are! However, this relates to cyber hygiene. We will send a phishing email to all your staff. It will be designed to get through to email inboxes despite all of the above precautions. Rest assured it will be harmless, and we will monitor and report back on how many staff (and who!) clicked any of the links or downloaded attachments. This in-turn helps businesses understand if they have any cyber-hygiene training requirements.The final piece of the Cyber One jigsaw. We establish continuous monitoring of traffic coming onto your server. We will see all threats, but any considered “High level” will be alerted to both you and CCS 2000 so we can take immediate action to protect your systems.
