Every device connected to the internet poses a potential security risk. Whether it’s a smartphone, laptop, printer, or even a POS terminal, IoT devices are possible entry points for unauthorized users. As cyber criminals work harder and increase the volume of their attacks, endpoint security has never been more important. Although many companies boast their endpoint security technologies, none offer a fully effective approach to endpoint security. A multi-layered approach is the only way to completely secure an organization.

Hackers Attack in More Than One Way

As AI and machine learning technology has progressed for both cybersecurity and hacking tools, hackers and cybercriminals are now able to attack enterprises and change their tactics mid-attack. These advancements in malicious technology mean hackers can operate more effectively and, oftentimes, without detection. Without a complete cybersecurity solution, risk of successful malware, virus and social engineering attacks increases drastically. A layered security approach protects against multiple attack vectors and helps business systems defend against a variety of different attacks, working to protect sensitive data and information from getting in the wrong hands.

A Breach Costs Significantly More than Implementing Multi-Layered Security

On average, businesses lose around 15 working hours per month due to downtime caused by security attacks. This downtime, in monetary value, translates to roughly $20,000 in lost opportunity costs. Additionally, the average cost of a successful cyberattack now exceeds one million dollars in lost opportunity and remediation costs. Although every enterprise would like to think they are not the likely cyberattack target, about 93% of businesses have been subject to attack, whether they know it or not. As criminals improve tactics and advance technologies, the cost of cyber attacks will only continue to increase. To protect against costly attacks, organizations need to have cutting-edge, multi-layered ransomware prevention, endpoint security, and EDR technologies. By implementing RevBits complete suite of cybersecurity solutions, enterprises won’t need to give the possibility of a cyberattack a second thought.
