Kieran Upadrasta Launches Finance and Telecom Sector IT Security Division
Finance and telecom industrialists nationwide will appreciate diverse IT security options offered by Kieran Upadrasta.
London – Cyber security consultant
and risk manager, Kieran Upadrasta invites businesses to re-evaluate their
Information Technology (IT) security options. A recent government study on
cyber security and cyber risks have found that larger businesses have
experienced a cyber breach or attack within the last year. However, regardless
of business size, any one business could be a potential target.
For those of you who are unfamiliar to IT security, information
technology security is the practice of defending information from unauthorized
access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction. Upadrasta
mentions “Information security is responsible for protecting the computer networks
of companies or government agencies.” This means that in the event of a cyber
security breach, criminals would have access to a multitude of information that
may include but is not limited to:
•
Personal employee information
•
Associated business
•
Salary information
•
Business Finances
•
Trade secrets
•
Business plans
•
Important research and development
IT security divisions, such as IP Security Services, Soft Security
Solutions, and (ISC)2 London Chapter are becoming increasingly popular among
business who are in need of protecting valuable business information. The
minister for the digital economy states that “The UK is a world–leading digital
economy and this (Government) has made cyber security a top priority.”
For Upadrasta, the IT security business is only just the beginning.
In an interview with Upadrasta, he mentions the importance of securing personal
and business related information.
When asked why IT security is so popular right now, Upadrasta
commented, “It is important to be concerned with information security because
internal business information is an important asset to any company. Businesses
can hold sensitive financial account information or personal employee data that
could put any business at risk. Attackers
are becoming more creative and have found unique ways of benefiting from having
those types of information. Every company should have a security program set in
place and we as IT security providers are always presented with growing
challenges and how best to protect against security threats.”
“Banks, financial institutions, telecom sectors, honestly, anyone’s
business can benefit. A good security program can provide a business years of
protection. The main task of information security is to ensure that a company’s
information technology system is not only secure but can also, ensure access
control, authentication, confidentiality, integrity, availability,
accountability and non-repudiation,” Mr. Upadrasta followed-up with.
Upadrasta closed by sharing, “We as IT security providers are not
just offering business information security, we are developing a lifestyle that
help inspire fellow IT colleagues. We help create jobs and increase the need
for IT security.”
