ACHIEVING A CLOUD SECURITY- FIRST CULTURE IS A
MUST FROM DAY ONE .
The National Cyber Security Centre ( NCSC ) reported in August 2021 that phishing email attacks had cost UK organisations more than £ 5 million in the past 13 months .
However , it doesn ’ t have to be expensive or complex to mitigate these email vulnerabilities . There are providers that offer an easy way to block phishing , malware , business email compromise and other advanced threats .
Mitigation techniques include blocking phishing attempts in real-time and proactively hunting for attacker campaigns and domains impersonating your brand .
Building in high-performance
You should also build the Zero Trust mentality into systems and code as you develop products – not as an afterthought at the end of a development life cycle .
Serverless technology – such as Cloudflare Workers – means start-ups can build and run applications without maintaining or configuring infrastructure to run code , manage data and integrate applications .
You just write the code and then it ’ ll be deployed across the globe in milliseconds to your users , delivering exceptional performance , reliability and scale .
This enables start-ups to adapt to customer needs fast . Your developers can build high-performance , low-latency applications that automatically scale from zero to peak user demands .
Planning for growth
As a start-up leader , you have enough on your plate without worrying about the possibility of a cyberattack or an outage . Achieving a cloud security-first culture is a must from day one . With a centralised solution for security , performance and reliability and a Zero Trust approach at the heart you ’ ll be set up for longterm success . �
