summary

A new year begins and at Symantec we want to be sure that you are ready for 2015.  After two major security issues in 2014 (Heartbleed and Shellshock) there are no safe assumptions in website security, so being a fit and resilient organisation ,prepared to tackle the unexpected should be your main motivation in 2015. While predicting the future is a fool’s game, it doesn’t mean we can’t pick up a few pointers from the past.

Before knowing what you demand, we need to know who you are; while website security should always be at the forefront of any online business, a new Symantec infographic emphasises  the importance of paying attention to whatever your role in your company is.

As an IT specialist, you need to know that according to Symantec research; two thirds of medium-sized companies have never conducted a vulnerability assessment on their website. As an IT manager, it is interesting to know that more than half a billion (552 million) identities were exposed in 2013 as a result of data breaches.

As mentioned previously, we need to know about you in order to be able to help. But what do you need? Which information do you need to protect? Are you the kind of person who downloads apps or do you share content on social media?  Perhaps you complete small money transactions or check your bank account via the Internet?

There is no need to worry if you do not know what to be concerned about in each situation.  At Symantec, we want to help you implement the best security solutions for your business. In order to help you determine your requirements, we have prepared a self-assessment quiz that will help you to find the best security solutions for your business, right now.

Not being prepared could prove disastrous in all three of those examples, but most people would agree that losing their phone with all the contacts, text messages, photos, and other irreplaceable data is […]
