Security is nothing but protecting your data,
digital assets, and digital devices from threats.
In real life, assume you have a significant sum
of money to protect it from being stolen. You may
use lockers, safes, and banks in the same way we
use different security measures to protect your
organizations data, digital assets, and digital
devices.

The objective of IT security is to prevent
unauthorized users, known as threat actors, from
disrupting, stealing, or exploiting these assets,
devices, and services. These dangers might come
from the outside or from the inside, and they can
be malicious or unintentional in their origin and
character. Before going into the topic in
discussion protecting our digital assets, let me
tell you how our life would be without
cybersecurity measures. Assume there is no
cybersecurity in this digital world where our
lives mostly depend on social media, digital
transactions, and the internet. It is like
keeping our locker with valuable things open for
thieves. Our private data may be stolen our bank
accounts can get hacked, our social media
accounts can be hacked. There will be no privacy
because hackers can invade it in no time. Yes,
our life can be this horrible without
CyberSecurity.

• Before taking the security measures, you need to
  know what are the digital assets that your
  company owns
• The digital assets can include
• Your companys official social media account and
  posts in it.
• Your companys website, domain name, and all the
  content in it.
• Business processes like manuals and spreadsheets.
• Visual graphics that your company generated.
• Applications that you have developed.
• Client list and customer details.
• Intellectual assets like patents and trademarks.

Now, let me tell you how we can protect our
digital assets and devices with simple and basic
security measures. 1. Secure the companys Wi-Fi
and stay up to date Firstly, you must update
your software frequently because the old versions
can not prevent new hacking methods. Furthermore,
Wi-Fi is becoming an integral element of most
enterprises. As a result, you must adhere to
Wi-Fi security best practices to protect your
digital assets. Ensure your router is kept in a
physically safe position, change the network
name, ensure the firewall is enabled, and
regularly update the firmware and software. 2.
Maintain a Data Backup Data Backup is a process
of copying the data files and storing them in a
different location. We can restore the files
whenever we want. Data Backup is very important
assume your system got crashed, or assume your
system got locked by some ransomware that is when
you can use the backed up data. All you need to
do is ctrl c the data and ctrl v thats it
now. You need not worry about losing your
organizations data.

3. Two-step verification In the world of
cybercrimes hoping that a password can save your
data is nothing but your innocence. There are
many social engineering techniques where a
cybercriminal can easily get the credentials of
your social media accounts, your bank accounts,
or any other private accounts. So the only
solution to escape the attacks is to have
two-step verification. This is nothing but using
an OTP to login into your accounts. This method
is helpful because you will receive the OTP to
your mobile (physical device), which an attacker
cannot access. Even if the attacker knows your
credentials, he cannot log in to your account
until they have the OTP.

4. Limit Access Restricting access to digital
assets and systems reduces the risk of loss or
theft. Limiting access is a crucial step in
protecting digital assets. Make sure that only
those workers who need to use digital assets and
systems have access to them. Authorized users of
these systems should follow data security best
practices, including password protection and
authentication while utilizing personal devices
and other risk factors. 5. Cyber Insurance Cyber
insurance is kind of similar to regular
insurance. For example, take health insurance.
This health insurance can compensate for the
money when you are ill. You can pay your medical
bills with health insurance. Similarly, Cyber
Insurance can compensate for the costs of your
data loss and investigations of cyberattacks.

6. Document Protocols Create a calendar and set
timelines for activities like backups, upgrades,
and software reviews using an ongoing schedule
and calendar. Make a list of your companys
current protocols, and make sure to update them
as required in the future. Guidelines for digital
asset management should be viewed as a dynamic
document that changes and evolves as content,
applications, and programs mature and
evolve. InfosecTrainInfosec train is one of
