Top 12 safeguards against cyber attacks
It is impossible to generalise the specific safeguards needed to deal with a cyber attack. Instead, the unique framework conditions, e.g. the IT infrastructure on site, the type of attack and the objectives of the organisation, all need to be taken into account.
The overview of the TOP 12 safeguards in the event of cyber attacks therefore only provides initial suggestions and assistance in responding to an incident. It is aimed at IT managers and administrators, primarily in small and medium-sized enterprises.
The list is not exhaustive. It is also not based on any statistical data. Deciding on what priority to give the listed and any other safeguards is up to your individual organisation.
If you need any additional external expertise in your organisation, you will find support in seeking qualified contacts in the safeguard catalogue for business continuity management.
