Best Cyber Security for New Orleans Businesses

Are you looking for the best antivirus software or firewall product to protect your New Orleans area business from hackers?

Hackers SUCCESFULLY attack an organization every 39 seconds. That’s 2,244 times a day on average!

Here in New Orleans, we have had our share of very notable attacks recently.

In 2019, Mayor Cantrell declared a state of emergency due to a hack that severely compromised systems for months and cost the city at least 7 Million Dollars.   There continues to be a steady news feed of other local and state-wide organizations being disrupted and severely compromised by hackers.

At Turn Key Solutions, businesses and individuals come to us constantly after being hacked, looking for how they can minimize damages and hopefully get their money back.   While many times the hackers only stole a few thousand dollars, more often than not they’re getting away with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars.

After a company or organization is hacked, the losses don’t stop.   There’s legal fees, breach notifications to customers, the cost of fixing systems, and so much more.   That’s why the average cost of a data breach on a business in 2021 was $4.24 million dollars!

So, what’s the best antivirus product for your New Orleans business?

We don’t recommend that you use an Antivirus program!  The hackers don’t rely on viruses to anymore.   Most attackers use a stolen password and the legitimate (usually out-of-date) software on their victim’s network to steal their victim’s money and data.   Ditch your Antivirus software and instead pick a high-quality Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) product.  The new EDR products protect against viruses, malware, and, more importantly, weird or unusual activity on your computers.

When the best EDR products detects something suspicious they automatically isolate a compromised computer from the rest of your network, send the logs to a monitoring team, and even roll back the changes the hackers made!
