We also deliver user awareness training and have a CRM platform for managing IT problems.
Consequently, we have developed an IT security management platform that can deliver within an IT support desk environment.
What’s unique about your product?
We offer penetration testing and vulnerability scans with insightful analysis, but we don’t stop there.
It is rather pointless for a company to be working without user policies.
Strangely, many SME businesses dont bother with policies and that can put them at very high risk.
We also offer cyber wargames, where we illustrate how a business would react at a time of crisis.
Our service combines both software and human support, which is critical.
Most IT companies only provide one or the other.
So yes we provide the management platforms, but we also interact with our clients whenever they need us.
From the cyber security perspective, the challenge is overcoming ignorance.
Instead, whenever a security issue arises, they turn to their IT department.
That is usually their first big blunder as the IT department is often the biggest weakness in the operation.
Let me give an example.
If someone was to break into your home and steal your TV, you’d call the police.
They, in turn, would write a report and look for evidence on CCTV.
Neither the bank nor the police can/will do anything to restore your money or secure your assets.
You become a helpless victim, and that’s something that people find very hard to understand.
Another hurdle is encouraging businesses to respond appropriately.
While many claim they are sufficiently protected, they’re often far from having adequate coverage.
Finally, the biggest challenge lies in the fact that IT has never been properly regulated.
Holker IT is qualified to deliver that scheme, which mitigates the most basic hacking risks.
We’ve been implementing Cyber Essentials Plus with our clients for quite some time now.
Any changes in the scheme are managed by us, to maintain maximum compliance with regulations.
What people must give a shot to grasp and understand is that the internet was never designed for security.
How do you see the future of IT security in 5 years from now?
I expect to see a lot more complaints and problems arising about security.
As a result, developers will have to write more security into their products.
