SECURITY SUPPORT

data & network protection

As the basis of business IT security support, CALLTECH in Oswestry will implement a set of cyber security strategies to prevent unauthorised access to assets such as computers, networks and data.

[ BONUS:  most common malware types ]

Viruses:  Are harmful computer programmes that can copy themselves and infect programmes, files or documents.  It's worth noting that viruses can stay hidden with no apparent signs or symptoms until the infected application is activated.

Regular viral sweeps are necessary to safeguard devices and is a fundamental aspect of maintaining digital security.

Worms:  A worm is actually much more serious than a virus because once it infects a vulnerable machine it can 'self-replicate'. . .  spreading automatically across multiple devices on the network;  consuming bandwidth and hard-drive space, and undermining system performance.

Spyware:  This form of Malware collects information from people without their knowledge or assent.

Adware:  'Adware' is a collective term for software that automatically plays, displays or downloads advertisements onto a computer or mobile device.  Although Adware is rarely damaging in itself, its presence can negatively impact individual computer and network performance.

Trojan horses:  This term describes any programme that presents as a useful application. . .  but then poses a risk to your computer or data after installation.

ACCESS CONTROL

who can access what, and when

Access control involves a number of data security processes that enable an organisation to manage who is authorised to access corporate data and resources.   CALLTECH achieves secure access control by applying policies and protocols to verify that users are who they claim to be. . .  and ensure that their appropriate control access levels are granted.
