Best Practices for Securing Your Site Effectively

Your organization may rely heavily on its website, even if it’s just used as a digital business card, and may need to remain available 24/7/365. Sure, there are internet outages that occur, leaving your website unavailable, but things like that are out of our control. We need to do our part to ensure our sites stay up and working.

Most threat actors are financially motivated – they’re out to make lots of money, so they will target huge organizations. Others may have political, social, monetary or religious motives. Some can’t be tracked or anticipated from crime to crime, and they attack simply because, as Alfred said in the Batman movie, “they want to watch the world burn.”  So while many FBOs may not have large monetary and intellectual property reserves, they still may be targets of hacktivists.

Did You know? Some of the more common attacks faced by FBOs are:

  • DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service),
  • Website defacement
  • Stealing and Sharing Data (name and shame)
