If the digital world is evolving, so are cyber-attacks and creating threats for businesses, and a logistics industry in India is no exception to that. From phishing scams, malware to ransomware are occurring in different forms and being in the business, we need to understand the severity of these threats and keep ourselves well-prepared. It’s necessary to focus on cyber security to minimize downtime, safeguard company’s reputation while saving time and money.

Let’s looks at some ways to improve cyber security in a digitalised logistics industry:

Keep all the software and applications up-to-date: An important step to keep software updated. Sometimes we tend to delay installing software updates due to the inconvenience of waiting or re-starting the system, but such updates are crucial for the logistics industry to be protected from cyber threats. 

Hackers wait for this opportunity and gain access to confidential information. Today, with software auto-update features in almost all the devices, will help employees save time and ensure that the logistics business is running smoothly without any hindrances providing all the necessary information and real-time data to customers. 

Create an IT administration team or outsource IT security: To keep all the software updated on-dot as well as safeguard it against the cyber threats, can be easily done by investing in a managed IT service provider or creating  an in-house team. The main responsibility of the team is to handle and monitor the network, take data backups, patch management, handle advanced virus protection, employee training and much more. 

With such a team, that’s always on toes, to keep the software updated and keep the company secure from cyber threats  can help the company’s top management to focus on the core business, lest worry about such issues. 

Investing and making aware the employees of the security awareness training program: Employees have to be trained to not delay the updates of software. They forget to update the software and provide a free hand to hackers to attack the company’s valuable data. 

Many companies today arrange awareness programs to let employees know the benefits of keeping the -software up-to-date. Such programs help employees to understand what cyber security is and best ways to avoid these attacks. 

Investing in cyber security measures can help keep the company’s reputation at bay. Logistics companies in India will get more time to concentrate on core business objectives than putting efforts on keeping the downtime to a minimum.
