Cybercrime and security: how can you protect yourself?

As the managing director of a small or medium-sized company, you may think that you will be spared from cybercrime. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Cybercrime is a growing threat to businesses of all sizes and it's better to be prepared than to learn the hard way.

Deutsche Windtechnik AG, based in Bremen's Überseestadt district, has fallen victim to a cyber attack. As the company confirmed, an external cyber attack on the company's IT systems has been detected.As a result, all computers were shut down for security reasons and the connections to all external systems were cut. The company cannot currently be contacted by email. Source: https://www.butenunbinnen.de/nachrichten/cyberangriff-auf-deutsche-windtechnik-ag-bremen-102.html

Cyber attacks can also affect medium-sized companies in Germany and the consequences can be devastating. Companies should be aware of the dangers and take comprehensive measures to protect themselves against cyber attacks.

How can artificial intelligence help?

An AI can use a variety of techniques and tools to identify vulnerabilities in a company's IT infrastructure and security architecture.

Possible steps in such an investigation include carrying out penetration tests, in which targeted attempts are made to penetrate the IT systems, as well as analysing network logs and system logs to detect anomalies and suspicious activities. Checking the configuration of firewalls, antivirus software and other security mechanisms can also be part of the investigation.

It is always important that the investigation is carried out in close cooperation with the company in order to develop a deep understanding of the specific needs and risks and to recommend suitable measures to eliminate the identified weaknesses.
