POPULAR QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

1What is IT hygiene and Spring Clean in IT?

Spring cleaning in IT implies collecting information on the existing infrastructure for further analysis. In due course, you get to analyze whether your configurations are up-to-date in terms of the industry and cyber hygiene best practices. Then, you create a report that’ll aid you in getting rid of:

  • potentially hazardous rules and misconfiguration cases;
  • rules that are no longer used;
  • outdated configuration parts (including users, addresses, objects, etc.);
  • duplicate objects;
  • outdated OS and software versions;
  • EOL systems and hardware;
  • not used ports, connections and hardware.

A company can go through this procedure any time of year (and more than once a year) as it allows for organizing the IT infrastructure. You get to allocate the infrastructure’s weak spots and bottlenecks, check license validity, find outdated or unused hardware and software, and make other important cybersecurity discoveries

2Why do companies need to mind IT hygiene?

Poor cyber hygiene can lead to drastic implications, including legal consequences and financial and reputational loss. Outdated procedures, inefficient workflows, and numerous vulnerabilities can result in data loss and various cyber-attacks, sabotaging the company.

This is why it is crucial for companies that are responsible for storing sensitive data to handle their cyber hygiene timely. This implies keeping an eye on compliance, having a high level of cybersecurity awareness, and an actionable incident response plan at hand.

By trusting a third-party expert company to handle your IT infrastructure inventory management, you’ll get a 360-degree view and evaluation of where you stand in terms of cybersecurity and whether your IT state corresponds to your business needs. This perspective allows for spotting the weak areas that need enforcement, reviewing who has access to what, and cleaning out unneeded data in logs and archives

3What can a company gain from IT hygiene services?

IT hygiene services provide a review that will grant you the chance to build a strategy that’ll allow you to make corresponding adjustments to transform and improve your IT infrastructure. The action plan may include points like updating your security patches, creating secure backups, going through penetration testing, reviewing the existing rules, your password and verification policies, implementing multi-factor authentication, among others.

As a result, the company may reap such advantages as:

  • streamlined internal processes;
  • increased level of work stability;
  • boosted software and hardware effectiveness;
  • improved customer service and additionally gained client trust;
  • enhanced risk management;
  • having a clear understanding of the IT landscape;
  • higher fault tolerance and IT infrastructure resilience;
  • obtaining the required information for strategic planning and creating a roadmap of your IT departments.
4What does every CTO have to know about their IT infrastructure?
Ideally, an IT manager should know:
  • the hardware and software’s end of life;
  • how resilient and fault-tolerant the IT infrastructure is;
  • how prepared the company is to internal and external hazards and threats.

Plus, a CTO should also have access to up-to-date documentation and be aware of which IT assets are used in the company (and how effective their use is). Finally, it is vital to have a brilliant disaster recovery plan that is actionable.
