Hackers Can Hit at Any Time. Test Your Store’s Defenses

10 Questions to Improve Your Store's Cybersecurity
 

  1. Do you have a cyberattack response plan in place so you don't lose time scrambling for resources or vendors to help you recover?
     
  2. Have you trained your employees to recognize potential email or phone scams to avoid "social engineering" schemes?
     
  3. Do you secure your devices and cloud-based resources using multifactor authentication, meaning you require at least two pieces of information in order to gain access?
     
  4. Have you enabled full disk encryption on your laptop and other devices to protect your data in the event the equipment is stolen?
     
  5. Do you know how to halt a hack?
     
  6. Or who to call to neutralize an attack?
     
  7. Do you back up your data daily?
     
  8. And do you regularly test out the backup, to ensure your data can be restored?
     
  9. Is your credit card payment processing vendor PCI-compliant?
     
  10. Is your customer data properly encrypted? Are you aware of data breach notification laws?
     
  11. Do you have an extra $7,115 to cover the cleanup of a data breach? (That's the average cost of a cyberattack to a small business, according to the National Small Business Association.)
