Your crown jewels are in SharePoint, you should be taking steps to ensure they are kept safe

The average data breach cost rises yearly and is currently at £4.5 million in the UK. 

SharePoint is a critical tool for most businesses and is often the primary file storage solution. It is also extremely popular, with 200M active monthly users. Eighty per cent of Fortune 500 companies use SharePoint, and it has a 75% market share in Content Collaboration.

SharePoint is all about making teamwork easier for everyone involved, both inside and outside of your organisation. With it, you can collaborate seamlessly across your entire supply chain to get things done faster and more efficiently. However, this poses risks, as 98% of companies have third-party connections and have experienced cyber security breaches in the past 24 months.

If you want to keep your SharePoint data secure and achieve better productivity, it's essential to take into account both the configuration of SharePoint and the important role that your employees play as the first line of defence.

This can be achieved by understanding the full security capabilities of SharePoint and creating a culture of support for cybersecurity measures that empower employees to take the necessary precautions. Doing so safeguards our data and promotes a safer and more productive work environment for everyone.
