Certified Ethical Hacker?
A Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) is an information security professional who is trained and certified to identify network vulnerabilities using the same tactics and tools as a malicious hacker, but in a legal and legitimate way. A certified ethical hacker can help protect your business from malicious hackers and data breaches by assessing your security posture. This assessment involves performing penetration testing of your network to look for weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
Why You Need a Certified Ethical Hacker
In 2019, data breaches exposed nearly 165 million sensitive records. All kinds of IT devices were attacked, including Windows and Apple computers, smartphones, tablets, and other connected devices. In 2020, there was further escalation of cybercrime driven by the COVID-19 pandemic and more sophisticated cybercriminals.
According to the SBA, small and mid-sized companies are prime targets, with over half of small businesses becoming victims. And 60% of the victims do not survive an attack. The average cost to SMBs (Small and Medium sized Business) skyrocketed from $8,600 per episode in 2013 to almost $21,600 today. Criminals hit some organizations multiple times, repeatedly targeting them in efforts to steal their customers' and employees' personal information, spy on their business secrets or merely drain their bank accounts.
Like many victims, you might think your business is already protected. There are several reasons why this may not be true. One of the biggest is that traditional antivirus tools, many of which are still in use, were designed for simpler times when there were only a few kinds of malware threats. Today, there are at least nine types, including ransomware (the most notorious), that are not detected by traditional AV (Audio Visual) software and legacy tools.
With cyberattacks skyrocketing worldwide, it may be a good time for you to leverage a certified ethical hacker from OrlanTech to complete a network penetration test to assess your company’s security vulnerabilities.
