4 Security Strategies You Haven’t Tried Yet

July 16, 2021 by Theo Leave a Comment

We live in extraordinary times. Never in history has mankind witnessed such a technological boom as the one we are currently going through. With such phenomenal developments, however, come greater threats to security.

From the cyber world to the real world, security cannot be ignored. Whether you have a business, a family, or both, implementing security strategies in your life can save you from heartache at a later date. Don’t ignore it until it’s too late.

But, you’re probably wondering where to start. Well, fear not! Keep reading to find out 4 tried and tested strategies for your home and business.

1. Upgrade Your Alarm System

Many people have this “if it’s not broke, don’t fix it” attitude when it comes to their alarm system. While your trusty system may have served you well in the past few years, you could be unwittingly making your life more difficult.

Thanks to smart technology, many traditional alarm companies now offer more secure and user-friendly alarm systems that are now very affordable.

So, if your alarm still has those rubber buttons, it might be time to give it a makeover.

2. Get a Security Guard

Nothing beats the human (or animal) touch. If your security strategy involves safety against crime and violence, there is very little technology that beats the effectiveness of living, breathing, guards.

For example, you could hire a drug sniffing dog if you are concerned about drug activity in your business or home. Or using a human security guard serves as one of the best deterrents for any unwanted visitors.

3. Protect Your Passwords

One of the biggest misconceptions about passwords in this day and age is that one password for every account is sensible. The truth is, it’s a piece of cake for a hacker to obtain your passwords if you use one for everything and it’s the same one you’ve had since high school.

Why not consider a password manager that will throw cybercriminals off the scent and ensure that your data has ironclad protection at all times?

4. Regularly Update Software

Updating software can often be time-consuming and seemingly unnecessary. While it is true that it can slow your day down, unnecessary it is not! Along with bug fixes, updates are mainly security-based. The longer you put off updates, the longer you leave a kink your cyber-armor for hackers to exploit.

Set time aside, daily if possible, to make necessary updates. They are far more important than meets the eye.

You’re Only as Strong as Your Security Strategies

In this demanding world, it can be easy to put things off, but it’s crucial to be aware that cybercriminals feed off your complacency. None of these security strategies are foolproof, but that’s not a good reason for ignoring them.

The longer we wait, the more vulnerable we become. So, take advantage of the measures you’ve read above and make sure that your sleep is sound knowing that you’ve done your best in protecting your business and home.
