Your business’ security infrastructure does a lot of heavy lifting, primarily due to today’s increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity threats. Companies want to know that their security measures work. To help you make sure you’re doing all you can to protect your infrastructure, we’ve put together five important components for any successful cybersecurity solution strategy.

## Identity Authentication

Without a way to identify who is accessing data on your network, you’ll be putting your data at risk. We recommend[ implementing multi-factor authentication](https://www.l7solutions.com/it-services/cybersecurity/multi-factor-authentication) measures to ensure that everyone accessing data on your network is who they claim to be. MFA uses multiple measures to verify someone’s identity, and it can include text codes, phone calls, or even biometrics, depending on what your business wants to invest in.

## Access Control

[Access control ](https://www.l7solutions.com/it-services/cybersecurity/access-control-solutions)is also an important part of any security infrastructure. You shouldn’t let just anyone access the data on your network; it should be partitioned off by their role within your business. There’s no need for anyone besides human resources, for example, to have access to sensitive employee information. We recommend zero-trust policies, where employees have to verify their identity at every turn, to optimize network security.

## Endpoint Security

Wired or wireless, in-office or remote, every device on your network needs to have [endpoint security](https://www.l7solutions.com/it-services/cybersecurity/endpoint-security-solutions) in place. A unified threat management tool makes this process easier, as it includes firewalls, antivirus, spam blocking, and content filtering solutions that can handle the majority of threats out there.

## Security Awareness

If a business is well-protected, a hacker might try to get in through other means, like your employees. [Security training](https://www.l7solutions.com/it-services/cybersecurity/phishing-simulation) is important for this very reason, as the methods used by hackers are increasingly crafty and unpredictable. Ensure your team knows security best practices and routinely test their knowledge in a controlled environment so they’re ready for the real threats when they do emerge—and make no mistake, they *will*.

## Detection and Response

How is your business currently monitoring and addressing security threats? Can it do it in real time? Are there [threats on your network](https://www.l7solutions.com/it-services/cybersecurity/network-security) you don’t even know exist? This is why remote monitoring is so important; it can answer these questions and take action to isolate and eliminate threats on your network. After all, you don’t know what you don’t know, and you can’t take action unless you know something is wrong.
