Proactive Cybersecurity Support Can Reduce Risk and Improve Operations for Your Business

Insights
February 10, 2020

Improving the operation of your business often starts with consolidation: creating a more cohesive structure that eliminates redundancy and slashes inefficiencies throughout the organization. Business leaders have been focused in this direction for generations, often looking for the smallest advantages that will allow them to outpace the competition. With the renewed focus on cybersecurity, it’s not unusual for businesses to focus more on protecting the security of their organization than attempting to improve operational excellence. What you may not realize is that some of the same initiatives that will help smooth operational hurdles can also provide added levels of cybersecurity. What can be difficult is finding the spaces where you can bring these goals into alignment and create a comprehensive strategy that addresses the holistic needs of the organization.

Shifting Cybersecurity From a Defensive Strategy

As hackers continue to expand their reach throughout the business community, technology leaders often double-down on the defensive postures that can help guard against the immediate threats of ransomware, phishing emails and direct data breaches. While these are important steps, it’s also important that you create a more active role for cybersecurity within the organization. Consider the cybersecurity and data security compliance requirements as enablers of innovation that will help the business move forward, instead of restrictive policies that are being forced upon the organization. This mental shift offers a broader scope that can become a platform for evolutionary change within the business.

Cybersecurity as a Competitive Advantage

The same work that you’re doing to build your cybersecurity posture and disaster recovery strategies provides your business with an opportunity to review business processes that have been part of institutional knowledge for years and challenge the status quo. Businesses often find that there are high-level items that can quickly be resolved, as well as finding deeper growth options that will reduce work blockages and help you maintain a greater velocity for your business. Business leaders may find that situations that have been causing inefficiencies can be overcome if the changes are in alignment with best practices for cybersecurity and business continuity. In this way, focusing on cybersecurity actually becomes a competitive advantage for your business, tightening operations and removing inconsistencies. While it is easy to see how these strategies could enhance the operations of the organization, getting started or even scoping the breadth of the necessary changes can be overwhelming. This is one of the reasons that businesses are shifting to a co-managed IT services model that allows internal teams to focus on the future while the day-to-day operations and Help Desk support are managed through a network of trusted providers.
