Renovation of security systems before computer science attacks, a practice extended in Spain

The national SMEs invest more over the average of the 15 advanced territories of Europe in protecting itself of virus, Spam or programs spy

Renovation of security systems before computer science attacks, a practice extended in Spain

Who wish to profit through practices outside the legality are, often, that they innovate more. It is at least the case of the people in charge of the shipment of all type of computer science applications able of infecting equipment, of collecting data without the consent of the proprietor or of obtaining that this one conducts battles that, later, will become in his against.

The advances in those archives do not stop taking place and, consequently, in those destining to either neutralize them. The doubt, nevertheless, is another one: the small and medians companies are prepared to follow that rate? Apparently, in Spain the awareness is high.

Programs spy on (spyware), mail nonwished (Spam) or, simply, virus computer science. Anyone of these types of archives that arrive in a computer science equipment with, at least, doubtful intentions are at readiness to cause to important upheavals to individuals and companies.

An attack of this type can force a company/signature to paralyze its activity. A recent study of the organization without spirit of Fundetec profit, in collaboration with a well-known Spanish company of production of programs anti-virus, confirms that the 23 percent of the European SMEs has been forced it at some time.

Their analysis is based on surveys to 6,000 corporations of the 15 advanced countries more of Europe, 3,000 of Spanish them and the other 3,000 of territories like Germany, Austria, Finland, Greece or the United Kingdom.

According to the data that the analysis throws, that 23 percent is reduced to an 8 percent in the Spanish case. Peculiarly, the companies of this country are, aside from the Finnish, those that more importance they give to the security in his computer science systems. Consequently, they realize investments over the European average in that section.

That increase in the security occurs although the SMEs usually do not realize studies on their weaker points before starting up a security system. For example, the work of Fundetec puts of maniefiesto that in Spain the 32 percent of the infections produces applications of spyware, whereas the 70 percent of the companies uses anti-virus.

Another representative data: in the studied European countries, the 20 percent of the threats arrives via Spam, whereas only a 1 percent of the companies takes prophylactic measures in that sense.
