Keep reading to find out!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is Continuous Security Monitoring?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuous security monitoring is a solution that allows for the automation of security monitoring in a business. It provides real-time visibility into a number of parts of the business. For example, it will check for<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cyber threats<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.extnoc.com\/learn\/security\/what-is-vulnerability-assessment\">vulnerabilities<\/a> in the system, and any security misconfigurations that have taken place. It\u2019s important that businesses look into this solution to protect their company at all times, especially now with the rise of remote workers where there are more opportunities for data to be lost.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Does Continuous Monitoring Help Enable Security-First Compliance?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Security should be your number one concern when it comes to your business, and having your network constantly monitored for threats is one way to ensure that you are enabling security-first compliance. You need to know what<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.extnoc.com\/blog\/russian-cyber-attacks-create-big-loss-business\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> threats your business could be facing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on a more in-depth basis than a simple tracking alter. Continuous monitoring allows you to be alerted as soon as a problem is found, rather than waiting until it becomes a bigger issue.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Continuous Security Monitoring Works\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuous Security Monitoring works by looking into all devices and users when they connect to your network. This works in real-time and scans all devices and users to ensure that your business is staying one step ahead of any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.extnoc.com\/blog\/cybersecurity-threats\/\">kind of cyberthreat<\/a>. No matter where the data is, an IT expert will be able to monitor and verify that all compliance regulations are being met by anyone using the network.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Where Does Continuous Monitoring Fit Into Risk Management?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By having this in place, you are able to stay ahead of any potential threats. When an IT expert looks at the data, they will be able to see if there are any problems at any given time. As well as this, it\u2019s not like you are seeing things an hour after they happen. With continuous security monitoring, you are tracking new information as it comes to light. This means that should there be any threat, you are able to work on a solution as soon as it is detected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But, because you are already one step ahead of the threats, the risk of anything happening is significantly reduced. Therefore, your business is not in as much danger as it would be if you were only having security checks intermittently.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why Are Security And Compliance Important In The Cloud?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Cloud has many security measures in place to ensure that there are no data leaks or breaches of any information that is being stored there. If security and compliance are not kept up, then a business is in danger of losing their data to theft. Each business stands to lose significant amounts of money if they are not complying with the security regulations of The Cloud, as they could end up involved in a data breach lawsuit. These have been known to bankrupt businesses in the past, so it is essential that every business is staying compliant in order to keep their data safe.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Are The Benefits Of Cloud Computing?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first benefit of cloud computing is the fact that it<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.extnoc.com\/blog\/how-to-deal-network-challenges-to-reduce-cost\/\"> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduces IT costs for a business<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Instead of having to purchase expensive systems, a business can take advantage of the solutions offered by the Cloud. You\u2019re not going to need a whole team of experts anymore, and there are likely to be fewer delays, saving your business money.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As well as this, it makes collaboration between areas of business simpler. Employees will be able to send and edit documents in real-time, without having to worry about a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.extnoc.com\/blog\/what-is-a-security-breach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">security breach<\/a> as it is all done on the encrypted Cloud. This will make the business more efficient.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How ExterNetworks eases Continuous Monitoring for Compliance<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ExterNetworks has a team of experts who are trained in all areas of cybersecurity.
