Why Cybersecurity Matters

Every year, individuals and businesses experience data loss, account takeovers, or device compromise due to common issues like weak passwords, unsafe Wi-Fi, phishing messages, or missing protections.

Most cybersecurity incidents don’t rely on advanced hacking techniques. In fact, over 80% of data breaches involve compromised credentials, weak access controls, or basic security misconfigurations, according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR).

These risks affect everyday users and organizations alike and often occur without warning.

Gharbiah Cyber Defense helps individuals and businesses reduce these risks through practical cybersecurity services designed to prevent problems before they happen.

Cybersecurity Services

Security Checkups

Identify weak passwords, unsafe Wi-Fi settings, outdated software, and data protection gaps with a clear, easy-to-read report.

This helps you understand what is already secure, what needs attention, and what improvements are recommended before problems occur.

Secure Setup & Hardening

Strengthen Wi-Fi, configure safer logins (MFA), encrypt devices, and set up reliable backups.

The goal is to reduce the chances of unauthorized access caused by common setup mistakes or stolen passwords.

Vulnerability Scanning

Authorized scans that safely check your systems for exposed services, weak configurations, and common security issues visible from the internet.

This provides visibility into potential risks without disrupting systems or daily business operations.

Digital Forensics Support

Entry-level forensic assistance including data preservation, basic incident review, and post-incident guidance.

Intended to help assess what may have occurred and determine appropriate next steps.

Backup & Recovery Planning

Plan and configure reliable data backups so critical business files can be restored after accidental deletion, ransomware, or hardware failure.

This focuses on preparation and recovery to minimize downtime and data loss.

Ransomware Readiness & Response

I eveluate how ready your business is to ransomware and other forms of malware by reviewing backup strategies and key security controls.

If harmful software is found, I remove or contain it and help restore normal operations, then provide clear next steps to reduce the chances of it happening again.

Employee Cybersecurity Training

Short, practical training sessions for employees on phishing, passwords, safe browsing, and how to handle suspicious emails or USB devices.

The goal is to strengthen everyday security habits so small mistakes are less likely to become serious problems.
