Cybersecurity in companies:

like Aldieri, it guarantees maximum IT security protection

We live in a world that is deeply interconnected and increasingly dependent on technology. It has been said that, within the current digital economy, people's data has become “the new oil”. In this complex and changing scenario, among the new threats to be faced, there are also cyberattacks.

A cyberattack is a set of offensive actions carried out against information systems (databases, computer networks, etc.) with the aim of damaging, altering or destroying institutions, people or companies.

Even logistics and transport companies, which today manage large amounts of data, can be victims of cyberattacks. To minimise the risk of potential security attacks, it is necessary to act by anticipating possible threats through cybersecurity.

What does cybersecurity mean?

By cybersecurity, we mean the practice of defending computers, servers, mobile devices, electronic systems, networks and data from cyberattacks. This practice is sometimes referred to as “computer security” or “electronic information security”.

Why do logistics and transport companies need a cybersecurity strategy?

All logistics and transport companies, regardless of their size, find themselves managing an ever-increasing amount of sensitive data and private (or even confidential) information that they need to classify and store securely, while learning to manage and anticipate potential risks associated with it.

What are the possible cybersecurity risks that a cybersecurity strategy aims to prevent in logistics and transport companies? rischi per la sicurezza informatica che una strategia di cybersicurezza ha l’obiettivo di prevenire nelle aziende di logistica e trasporti?

Some of the most common are:

• industrial espionage
• risks for people's security or for physical security in the workplace and its access
• theft or loss of plans and documentation
• environmental impact on IT equipment
• remote access to systems
• e-commerce fraud
• use of package tracking tools
• copyright and intellectual property
• loss of confidential information
• damage to the image and loss of trust from customers

Cybersecurity at Aldieri: maximum protection against cybersecurity attacks

At Aldieri, we work from a Business Continuity perspective, guaranteeing Disaster Recovery and Data Protection with highly qualified partners such as ConnectWise and the dedicated SOC (Security Operations Centre)

ConnectWise SentinelOne is a next-generation endpoint protection solution that ensures sensitive data is protected from ransomware and other attacks. This system guarantees that the company information systems are completely impenetrable.

ConnectWise ensures SentinelOne is absolutely reliable by guaranteeing the payment of up to $1000 per protected company device in the event of a company block following a ransomware attack.

For logistics and transport companies, it is necessary to analyse the current state of their IT security to set the goals they want to achieve, taking into account all the departments to implement a manual of best practices and ensure maximum cybersecurity.

However, this is not a one-off implementation. At Aldieri, training employees and adapting IT security systems is a continuous process, always active and evolving to ensure the best response to customer needs and to the new risks that companies like ours find themselves facing.

Today, and even more so in the future, cybersecurity is a business necessity that logistics and transport companies cannot and must not ignore or underestimate.
