Building Your Cyber Resilience Strategy

We’ve outlined a few simple ways that Voleer helps organizations manage their security vulnerabilities and stay ahead of potential threats.

Investment in a cyber resilience strategy includes a combination of technology, processes, and people. 

Cyber-attacks have rapidly increased in sophistication, and hackers use techniques that are becoming difficult for even the most tech-savvy organizations to spot. The new and evolving security threats will become more targeted and planned in 2021, making it incredibly difficult for organizations to keep from being compromised.

The best way to keep your organization protected is to implement a cybersecurity defense to protect users and reduce the risk of malicious intent or human error.

We’ve outlined a few simple ways that Voleer helps organizations manage their security vulnerabilities and stay ahead of potential threats without dedicating resources or increasing headcount.

Assess your security vulnerabilities

Run an assessment on your Microsoft 365 environment to see critical information, including the location of user logins, failed login attempts, and compromised accounts. You’ll have a snapshot of your organization and automated logs you can send to users to verify any suspicious activity.

Having insight into your Microsoft 365 environment not only identifies security vulnerabilities that may require immediate action, but it’s also the first step in developing a cyber resilience strategy for your organization!

Set up security alerts

By setting up automatic notifications, you can be alerted of potentially risky activity throughout your organization. The activity summary can be sent to users every 7 or 14 days to verify their activity and notify their IT team if there is any activity they don’t recognize.

Security alerts provide:

  • Compromised account information

  • Unsuccessful login attempts

  • Logins by location

  • Devices associated with the account

  • Inbox rule activity

Schedule security reports to run periodically

To maintain cyber resilience, you should regularly assess your Microsoft 365 environment. Monitor activity by scheduling the assessment to run periodically and delivered to you or someone else you select like a team member or a customer. Schedule it to run weekly, monthly, quarterly, or whatever frequency you chose! By scheduling security reports, you can easily monitor a broad spectrum of Microsoft 365 metrics to ensure your business optimizes usage, and there aren’t major security threats.

Building a cyber resilience and governance strategy

It’s essential now more than ever for organizations to plan a cybersecurity defense. With proper planning and the right tools, you can reduce risk and increase productivity without dedicated IT resources.
