If you want to be a Jedi Knight, your starter pack should include a robe, lightsaber, and some blue milk. Or if you aspire to haul the ultimate ring of power to Mordor, then your starter pack should include a map, mithril coat, sword, and some pipe weed for the long journey.
But what if, instead of battling Darth Sidious or Sauron, you want to fight hackers, rogue users, and other threat actors? In that case, you need a cybersecurity starter pack.
This month’s question
That brings us to June’s poll question. To celebrate the launch of the Devolutions Starter Pack (more on this below), this month we want to know: What’s in your perfect cybersecurity starter pack?
These are the fundamental cybersecurity tools and technologies that you believe every organization must have. Think of them as “need-to-have” vs. the “nice-to-have” solutions. Here are some possibilities:
-
PAM
-
VPN
-
Antivirus
-
Vulnerability scanner
-
Password vault
-
Password manager
-
Remote access management
These are just a few ideas to spark your thinking. Your perfect cybersecurity toolkit can be as compact or comprehensive as you like. You can also list specific brands/products if you wish (e.g., Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, NordVPN, etc.).
You could win
We will look at the responses early next month, and highlight what the community as-a-whole believes should be included in the perfect cybersecurity starter pack. We will also award two lucky poll participants a $25 Amazon gift card.
About the Devolutions Starter Pack
As mentioned earlier, this month’s poll question is inspired by the all-new Devolutions Starter Pack, which was unofficially introduced a couple of weeks ago as part of our big Geek Pride Day sale. In case you missed the details, here is a recap:
The Devolutions Starter Pack is an all-in-one IT security toolbox that features everything that your small business needs to stay secure and productive — workforce password management, remote access, remote connection, and privileged access — bundled for up to 5 users. It equips and empowers you with full access to the exact same enterprise-grade tools used by large IT teams, but at a much lower price.
In the coming days, we will officially be unveiling the Devolutions Starter Pack, and providing some great new learning resources including articles, videos, and Devolutions Academy courses. If you’re eager to learn more right now, then visit this page.
