I recommend you find a vendor that is able to perform the following an an annual basis followed by quarterly security trainings.

Audit:

Conduct a thorough assessment of your company’s current cybersecurity posture, including network infrastructure, software systems, and data storage. Identify vulnerabilities and potential areas of risk, such as outdated software, weak passwords, and insufficient access controls. Review your company’s incident response and disaster recovery plans to ensure they are up-to-date and effective.

Remediation:

Implement best practices for cybersecurity, such as two-factor authentication, encryption, and regular software updates. Develop and implement incident response and disaster recovery plans to minimize the impact of a potential cybersecurity incident. Continuously monitor your company’s systems and networks for potential threats and respond to any incidents promptly.

Training and Awareness:

Provide cybersecurity training and awareness to employees to help them understand the importance of cybersecurity and how they can play a role in protecting the company. Regularly remind employees of the importance of cybersecurity and provide them with updated information on new threats and best practices.
