What Are the Best Practices for Implementing Enterprise Security Control?

The following best practices can help protect your enterprise against security threats:

• You should protect data both at rest and in transit by identifying assets that you must encrypt and by developing a scalable security strategy surrounding this.

• You should develop identity and access management controls using the principle of least privilege, which will allow only enough access to perform tasks.

• You should initiate plans for mitigating risk and recovering from disasters, which should include not only workflows but also the responsibilities for them.

• You should educate your employees on computer security, as they can often act as a line of defense against many threats, especially those that target humans.

• You should manage endpoint security, which you can do through using technologies that continuously monitor your network for anomalous traffic.

• You shouldn't limit the management of security strategy to IT departments alone, but also include senior management during the deliberation of them.
