Network and Security

Networking & Security – keeping your systems running, keeping your business safe

Today, most companies want to work from anywhere and everywhere. The expansion of network and security through more readily available solutions has been a great liberator, allowing more dynamic and flexible working. However, as our reliance on technology increases, so does our exposure to risk, particularly in terms of online security.

Your business needs to ensure that you have a robust approach to the issues at hand, which if not properly considered, can lead to security breaches. And even when software and hardware solutions are implemented, people should be at the heart of any cyber security strategy. Staff awareness of the risks is essential.

Hackers and online fraud often make the news, so ignorance is no excuse. Liability remains yours so if you are unsure how to approach network cyber security, please speak to us and we can help guide you through the issues as well as the solutions available to mitigate the risk.

Solutions to improve your network performance and enhance data security

For most organisations, your network and security is vital; inefficiencies and security vulnerabilities greatly impact productivity and undermine business growth.
At Minerva IT Support, we understand that your business data is a critical asset that has to be protected, and the network on which it runs needs to be cost-effective and reliable whilst providing maximum benefit to your business.

Scalable, reliable, secure business IT solutions

At Minerva IT Support, we will work closely with you to help you provide support and advice. We will ensure you maximise the use of your budget to create as secure and efficient a network as possible, reducing risks, whilst meeting the current and changing needs of your business.

Think you’re not a target?

In 2024, the UK Government Cyber Security Breaches Survey revealed that 50% of UK businesses had suffered a cyber-attack or security breach in the previous 12 months*

Taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation, and the nature, scope, context, and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller and the processor shall implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including inter alia as appropriate:

  1. The pseudonymisation and encryption of personal data.
  2. The ability to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability, and resilience of processing systems and services.
  3. The ability to restore the availability and access to personal data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident.
  4. A process for regularly testing, assessing, and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures for ensuring the security of the processing.

The above law emphasises the legal obligation of organisations to protect personal data through appropriate security measures in the context of the GDPR, a cornerstone of data protection law within the European Union. Minerva IT Support will make sure you are compliant.
