Why is Cybersecurity Important?
The increase in technology being used by organizations over the last decade has brought an increase in cybercrime. The possibilities and potential rewards are nearly endless for hackers looking to attack your organization.
On one hand, you have individual hackers looking for a payday by releasing ransomware on one computer. On the other, you might face insider threats from within your organization. Insider threats are usually orchestrated by employees, former employees, contractors, temporary workers, or customers.
While many data breaches can be handled fast and efficiently with the right cybersecurity protections in place, that is not the case for organizations with limited defenses. According to IBM, the “lifecycle of a malicious attack from breach to containment” can often be upwards of 314 days and cost upwards of 1.2 million dollars.
Cybercrime now saturates all aspects of society and strengthens the assertion that cybersecurity is crucially important to all organizations.

Multilayered Protection
The wide array of security needs facing your business today cannot be effectively addressed with a single product. Multilayered security will help limit threats to your ogranization from malware, phishing, and other more sophisticated attacks. That’s why we partner with leaders in the IT security industry to design a multilayered solution that will reliably secure your proprietary information, both in the cloud and locally.
Don’t let another day go by without deploying effective security around your information. Your first step should be an IT Assessment from the experts at JDL Technologies.

Testimonials
Three years ago Zumba engaged JDL Technologies to manage our IT infrastructure as part of the JDL Tech managed IT program. This has freed up our in-house staff to be highly efficient and responsive to the business needs of the corporation. As an expert, experienced technology partner, JDL Technologies enables us to optimize our IT infrastructure and capabilities without having to add in-house resources. I would recommend JDL Tech managed IT services to anyone looking for the same benefits.
JDL Tech conducted a Network Security Assessment, prioritized their findings, and offered remediation recommendations for each finding. We were impressed with the comprehensiveness and professionalism of the report and process, which led us to sign an agreement to have JDL manage our IT services. I am extremely pleased with the work, professionalism and exceptional service received from JDL—and, more importantly, from all of their employees. The choice to switch to JDL Technologies has proven to be the best IT decision for ARCA!
