Security experts say phishing has become the greatest cybersecurity threat to businesses.
BENEFITS OF UNDERGOING A FULL IT SECURITY AUDIT
Before spending any money on security systems or professional services, cannabis businesses
should run an audit of their existing cyber security to assess potential weaknesses.
The security safeguards Schlissel's team checks for during an initial assessment include:
* Does the business have a professional-class firewall with stateful inspection?
* Is the firewall configured properly with IPS and IDS?
* Are the networks segmented properly with VLANS for specific network functions?
* Are the systems up to date with all vendor patches?
* Has business locked down their POS terminals and tablets?
* Is there antivirus software installed and configured properly on each personal computer?
* Does the business have a single sign on (SSO) enabled where applicable?
Schlissel calls the second stage in the audit " penetration testing, " where the security firm will
attempt to hack into the system.
" While this may be overkill for a single-location entity, MSOs should invest in pen tests, " he says.
