Introduction

At avilo, we’re all about making technology accessible, secure, and user-friendly. Founded in 2019, our mission has been to help businesses streamline their operations with smart, practical tech solutions that don’t compromise on security. In a world where cyber threats are evolving as fast as technology itself, we know that digital safety isn’t just an add-on—it’s an essential part of every IT solution we provide.

avilo's Role in Cybersecurity

Our journey in cybersecurity started with our dedication to creating solutions that empower businesses while protecting them. As we began developing IT solutions for clients across industries, we saw first-hand how vulnerabilities in traditional systems were holding businesses back. This was a challenge we were ready to tackle. Whether it’s our Washd laundry management system or customized IT infrastructure, cybersecurity is integrated into everything we do at avilo.

Key Cyber Threats We’re Addressing Today

In today’s digital world, cybercrime is more sophisticated than ever. Here are some of the key threats we’re focusing on as we develop solutions for our clients:

• Data Breaches and Ransomware: Sensitive data is often a target, especially in industries where managing client or operational data is critical. We prioritize data security in every system, making sure sensitive information is protected through encryption and access control.
  
• IoT Vulnerabilities: With connected devices playing a greater role in business operations, we focus on protecting IoT networks. Our solutions for smart rooms and connected workplaces, for example, are built with multi-layered security to prevent unauthorized access.
  
• Social Engineering and Phishing: We implement training and awareness for our clients, as human error can often be the weak link. Our approach ensures that teams know how to spot risks and act quickly to prevent potential breaches.
  

Emerging Cybersecurity Trends to Watch

As digital threats continue to evolve, here are some emerging trends that are influencing our approach to security at avilo:

• Zero Trust Architecture: We’re adopting Zero Trust principles in our infrastructure setups, particularly in networks that require high security. By ensuring verification at every access point, we’re keeping client networks safe.
  
• AI-Driven Threat Detection: AI and machine learning are enabling faster, more accurate threat detection, and we’re excited to integrate these tools where they add value, especially for clients who handle sensitive data.
  
• Data Privacy and Compliance: Privacy regulations are ramping up worldwide, and compliance is now a top priority. We design systems that make it easy for our clients to comply with GDPR and other data protection laws.
  

How We Keep Avilo and Our Clients Safe Online

Security is an ongoing commitment at avilo. From regular system updates to rigorous testing, here’s how we maintain cybersecurity for ourselves and our clients:

• Regular System Audits: We perform regular audits of our systems and solutions, identifying potential vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
  
• Encryption and Multi-Factor Authentication: Data is encrypted both in transit and at rest, while multi-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security for all our systems.
  
• Secure Backup Solutions: Through our Veeam backup solutions, we ensure that client data is protected and recoverable. This proved invaluable in one instance where a client accidentally deleted over 1000 emails; we restored everything quickly, ensuring minimal disruption.
