Hendren Group Global Facts: Kaspersky Lab unveils small office security for small businesses8 Years AgoMajority
of small businesses doesn't give a lot of attention to ensuring their
cybersecurity these days, that's why they are the usual target of
cybercriminals according to the report from Hendren Group Global Facts
blog.
Kaspersky
Lab recently introduced the latest edition of the company's security platform,
dubbed as Kaspersky Small Office Security (KSOS), designed specifically to
serve the needs of small businesses with less than twenty five employees. The
platform is user-friendly and provides excellent protection.
It also makes much easier for small businesses to keep track on their valuable
information while keeping the customer, employee and operations data protected. Senior
Product Marketing Manager at Kaspersky Lab North America, Andrey Pozhogin said
that it requires a lot of effort and expertise to create a working solution out
of available single-purpose applications. One
might need to protect Windows and Mac-based workstations, mobile devices, have
clean virtual machines set up for online banking, create a backup solution,
encrypt sensitive data and use time consuming IT policies regarding the use of
strong passwords. This type of policy can be changed with a password manager
that will not just recommend the use of strong and unique passwords, but will
also save a lot of time. The
updated version of Kaspersky Small Office Security includes enhanced protection
from all known, unknown and advanced threats, with multi-layered protection for
Windows and Mac computers, servers and Android-based mobile devices. A
cloud-based management console that allows users manage IT security and devices
anywhere with a web browser. It
also has a new cloud-based password management that holds important company
login information and enables users to have a different, unique password for
every secure site, across all devices, while only needing to remember one
master-password.
Furthermore,
the platform provides security for financial data that protects online business
and personal transaction from financial fraud through its improved 'Safe Money'
module. KSOS
protects Windows-based or Mac-based desktops or notebooks, Windows file
servers, and Android smartphones and tablets. Each user will get protection for
one Windows or Mac computer and one mobile device and Kaspersky Password
Manager. File Server protection is included based on the number of protected
users. In
a nutshell, the solution provides anti-malware and online transaction security,
cloud management, backup and password management. It is also straightforward to
install, simple to configure, and easy to maintain. Pozhogin
added that small businesses aim for an effective security solution, however, it
has to be easy to manage considering the lack of expertise that some security
administrator might have. It is also believed that sophistication is the top
enemy of security and this is especially true in the case of small businesses. Because
of today's increasing threats on cybersecurity, a lot of people believe that it
is not just enough to utilize a comprehensive security solution. However,
the company still believes that the demand for highly integrated user-friendly
solutions such as KSOS will continue to grow significantly. They will continue
to listen to their customers and partners, and will further develop KSOS to
fulfill the needs of small businesses. |
