Tips from Microsoft on how to Protect against attacks
One crucial point stands out: the vast majority of successful cyberattacks could be thwarted by implementing a few fundamental security hygiene practices.
The fundamentals of cyber hygiene
Enable multifactor authentication (MFA)
This protects against compromised user passwords and helps to provide extra resilience for identities.
Apply Zero Trust principles
The cornerstone of any resilience plan is to limit the impact of an attack on an organization: explicitly verify, use least privilege access, and always assume breach.
Use extended detection and response (XDR) and antimalware
Implement software to detect and automatically block attacks and provide insights to the security operations software. Monitoring insights from threat detection systems is essential to being able to respond to threats in a timely fashion.
Keep up to date
Unpatched and out-of-date systems are a key reason many organizations fall victim to an attack. Ensure all systems are kept up to date including firmware, the operating system, and applications.
Protect data
Knowing your important data, where it is located, and whether the right defenses are implemented is crucial to implementing the appropriate protection.
