Cybercrime attacks on government institutions and organizations
recently, gained access to confidential data worth millions of dollars
and threatening the safety of countries. Consequently, the importance of
securing a website or computer system or any digital infrastructure has
become of vital importance due to high vulnerability to attacks, risking
brand image and company reputation.
Its time the country needs a strong cybersecurity system to prevent
these various kinds of sophisticated cyber attacks by hackers and cyber
terrorists. From that perspective, the national cyber security
architecture if planned and implemented strategically can secure the
country's confidential data and network platforms. It is also necessary
to build a National Cyber Security Framework which will highlight and
robust the current government network architecture. eCybersec takes
credit for being able to approach the threat through a planned cyber
incident response plan, which identifies various scenarios and sets out
appropriate responses.
Sanjee Balasuriya, CEO and founder of eCybersec stated that, Security
technologies including firewalls, network and host intrusion detection,
and prevention systems have created a tremendous volume of information,
and handling that information only makes a company's security problems
more challenging.
Even if a single link is weak, the network Infrastructure could be
vulnerable to an attack. Application Penetration Testing and Source Code
Reviews also play a vital aspect of this process which will help to
understand the security posture of the systems and the applications, he
continued.
The Cyber security platform created by eCybersec integrates a
company's functions such as IT, HR and other departments having access
to confidential information. eCybersec also won the Gold award at the
recent hacking challenge contest organized by SLCERT, Sri Lanka's prime
body in defending Cyber Crime. |
