Lepofsky & Associates Safeguards Your Server
What are the main things Lepofsky & Associates does to safeguard the security of your server?
We start with an assessment of your server:
- What software you're running
- Current security measures
- Password policies
- Open ports
- Vulnerability scans.
...And more depending on what is found.
This allows us to formulate an action plan for implementation, which can include the following:
- Software updates necessary due to vulnerabilities found
- Changes to server configuration
- Changes to server security
- Changes to password policies
- Changes to server access for better security
- Tuning performed to make the server run smoother
...And more according to what was found in the assessment.
Outdated software, whether prepackaged or custom, is one of the major vulnerabilities we find. Prepackage and custom software need to be updated regularly to thwart vulnerabilities that may be present in what is currently running on your server. This helps to protect the server data.
Another item we find is the use of the same passwords in multiple locations, whether on your server or out on the web. This will cause an issue when, not if, the password becomes compromised. We always suggest using a password manager for all passwords used. This simplifies the secure password process by requiring you to remember only one secure password that will allow you to access all of your secure passwords.
Server security should always be a top priority. We encourage you to take the necessary steps to protect your server and the valuable data it provides you and your customers.
In summary, Lepofsky & Associates understands that safeguarding your server entails more than just securing access to one aspect of it. Lepofsky & Associates implements a layered security approach that is crucial to making it increasingly difficult for infiltrators to breach your defenses.
