Posted by commit on July 3rd, 2015

Everybody is taking steps to enhance IT security and your organization should be no exception. This is especially true now that security, breaches threatening business and organizational networks are increasing in number. How do you plan to protect your firm from these threats? You can ramp up training on various security issues for your current employees, vet firms that can handle extreme threats, and hire IT security professionals who know all about the latest strategies and tactics to employ to prevent and mitigate security breaches. Here are some of the most important qualities you should look for when hiring IT security professionals:

•    Look for an IT company that has a broad range of experience and a proven track record when it comes to proactively addressing network vulnerabilities. Interview candidates about the types of methodologies and tactics that they use and make sure that they use best practices. Companies who have gone through various security issues in the past will have good intelligence and would know how to apply what they previously learned in your company's security issues.

•    Consider their security certifications. Some of today's most recognized security certifications include the CISSP or Certified Information Systems Security Professional, CompTIA, and CISM or Certified Information Security Manager.

•    Look for soft skills like strong leadership skills and competent communication to make sure that they can relay potential threats, and explain policies on personal devices efficiently.

•    Make sure that they offer effective security programs, the best of which are based on fundamental elements that address strategies and tactics ensuring information ability and safety.

Information security is an essential business investment. It is all about defending business-critical assets in the form of data and information while preserving business continuity and safeguarding the company's corporate image, brand, and reputation. It is finding the balance between information security and availability to ensure that the appropriate people have the right information at the right time they need it. Companies today rely greatly on information and data transfer. This means information that is secured yet unavailable is completely worthless. Just the same, information that is available but unsecure offers very little value and may even threaten the welfare of the company. This is why information security is such a huge boardroom issue that should be addressed proactively by hiring the most reliable network security firm that can best meet your network's unique needs.
