For a direct sales business, security needs better practices and standards to secure the organization. As technology continues to evolve, the threats has evolved as well, leaving a new challenge for companies to adopt new strategies to secure their organizations. Direct sales companies have traditionally relied on firewalls and other secure system as their primary lines of defence. But with hackers' attacks becoming more sophisticated, without a proper strategy these defences are breached.
An effective security management framework is needed with a real-time security measure through all levels of the enterprise architecture safeguarding the system against threats, risks, and vulnerabilities. For any business, cybersecurity is an important part. As said earlier technology has evolved well and it has also increased data breeches more. So, the platform should be incorporated with advanced features such as zero-trust framework, penetration testing, multi-factor authentication, application security, etc. The fundamental component for a comprehensive framework is access management which implements role-based access control to restrict permissions in a consistent manner.
Data security is an important field facing with new threats. The framework should be designed in such a way that it incorporates features such as cloud data security, data loss prevention, centralized access control, physical security of servers and other devices, data encryption and cryptography etc.
