What Are The Cyber Security Threats Businesses Face?
Threats now go well beyond viruses. Here are some of the more common types of malware :
MANAGED ANTIVIRUS SOLUTIONS
At its most basic level antivirus technology detects and neutralises threats found on devices and servers. As a result, most solutions will, however, contain a range of additional features to help keep users safe.
With this in mind, Akita offers two main antivirus products to deliver PC, server and wider endpoint protection:
SOPHOS
Sophos is a market-leader in cyber security solutions. As a Sophos Gold Partner, we offer Sophos Intercept X Essential (reactive antivirus) and Advanced (proactive protection) licensing.
Intercept X Advanced offers a comprehensive solution offering excellent protection against a broad range of attacks and threats. It does this by securing all devices on a network with endpoint protection, server protection and a software firewall that blocks threats from entering the network in the first place. Additionally it includes WiFi protection, email scanning and much more.
For IT managers and CTOs, we can also provide Sophos MDR which delivers in-depth threat intelligence and advanced alerting on the security of your IT ecosystem.
Microsoft Defender For Business
Microsoft Defender for Business is the next step in innovative antivirus protection software.
The new and improved software is an advanced and innovative solution compared to its competitors, boasting many features that no others do, and incorporating a new way of working.
The software differs from traditional antivirus solutions in that it’s fully admin-based and doesn’t need users to manually run scans. The software will be constantly scanning for malicious programs and updating your admin with detailed reports.

Managed ANTI-RANSOMWARE SOLUTIONS
Ransomware is an evolving threat and arguably more dangerous to organisations than many other types of malware or viruses.
Ransomware creates an encrypted copy of all data held on a PC or server, then wipes the original files. After this, organisations are then forced to pay the ransom to unlock the data. And afterwards, there is no guarantee that cybercriminals will unlock your data on payment.
As entire servers can be infected in minutes, organisations are recommended to adopt an IT cyber security strategy that includes anti-ransomware.
Akita’s preferred solution is CryptoGuard, included as part of Sophos Intercept X. It uses machine learning to detect activities occurring within devices and servers that indicate signs of a ransomware attack. Afterward, it will then deactivate any suspicious processes in seconds.
CryptoGuard will even monitor trusted applications and programs for signs of infection – something many other anti-ransomware solutions don’t do.
Cyber Essentials Services
As well as software solutions to combat cyber attacks, we also assist organisations with Cyber Essentials accreditation.
Cyber Essentials is a Government-backed scheme designed to help organisations of all sizes protect themselves against cyber attacks. The certification assesses IT setups and is designed to prevent the most common types of cyberattacks.
By achieving Cyber Essentials, organisations can become more aware of common threats and reduce the risk of them becoming a victim to cybercrime tactics. They also become eligle for cyber security insurance and to bid for certain Government tenders.
