A key component of every cybersecurity design is ransomware and malware prevention. This generally includes a means to monitor the business network to detect and automatically install the required antivirus and other endpoint protection. Import aspects of malware prevention are:
Reputable endpoint protection software manufacturers will update and publish their best practices which maximize the protection their software provides
Best practices should be documented and lab tested, then implemented
The key settings adjustments should be documented in case an unexpected problem comes to light
Dolce Vita researches and implements manufacturer best practices every quarter
Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is configured to identify all software installed, and if a device is added to the network, endpoint protection is automatically installed
Reputable email security vendors will publish updated best practices. 75+% of ransomware attacks originate via email so proper email security is paramount
Email security best practices should be documented and implemented quarterly
Email system policies should enforce the use of strong, complex passwords
Email management must include enforced use of multifactor authentication (MFA)
User access to email should include the use of multifactor authentication
Use of private email (Gmail, etc.) by users in the office should be prohibited
Remote monitoring and management is configured to automatically install antivirus and endpoint protection when new devices are placed on the network
Weekly or bi-weekly reviews of anti-malware systems ensure any problem trends are addressed early
Monitoring and real-time alerting by endpoint management provides exceptional protection
Remote monitoring and management (RMM) has the capability to disconnect a ransomware-infected device from the network automatically to halt infection spread and ransomware activity
