Two of the most successful examples of cyber-sabotage and cyber-espionage were introduced through anonymous flash drives simply scattered in parking lots.
HUNTSVILLE, AL, March 20, 2019 /24-7PressRelease/ -- To call the pursuit of data security solutions today a search would be an understatement. It is more like a stampede. Forbes estimates that $170 billion this year will go to various data security solutions, and the operative word here is "various." The search proceeds in so many directions at the same time that it is more like an explosion.
Almost all of the investment in cybersecurity goes to software and online solutions, while data ports and network connections – the visible, physical points of access to your vital data and information systems – are wide open. The invisible exposures receive all the attention, while ignoring billions of places where malware, spyware, viruses, and all manner of contamination can gain access.
The utter vulnerability of these visible points of access is not just theoretical. Far from it. Two of the most successful examples of cyber-sabotage and cyber-espionage were introduced through anonymous flash drives simply scattered in parking lots. Even the most trusted, best-trained associates don't hesitate to use a "found thumb drive," as research studies further prove. Protection for our ports and connectors, while often overlooked, are not optional. They constitute a vital sector of your overall cybersecurity perimeter today.
To enhance physical security, The Connectivity Center offers an extensive array of devices for securing those ports and connectors, and thus completing an organization's cyber-defense perimeter. Among those solutions is its Smart Keeper collection of computer and laptop security devices. In addition to securing USB ports and network connections, its Link Lock connectors and the Link Lock Hub also lock devices so that they cannot be removed without authorized access.
The Connectivity Center offers hundreds of other data security solutions, including a variety of locking 4K high-speed cables and two kinds of keys for unlocking them, the Enterprise and Professional series of the Smart Keeper USB Port Lock Key. The Professional Series key from The Connectivity Center offers even more. You get effective control for reaching port locks in confined spaces from an ergonomic, retractable housing with anti-static rubber grip, LED light for low visibility work areas, and dual-retractors – main and peripheral – for access to any angle of installation. Key patterns are strictly controlled, yet you can order duplicate keys to suit your own security authorization structure.
