Every software and hardware needs to undergo a set of installation and configuration processes. However, some widely used software, especially older versions, have documented security vulnerabilities, and removing unused software and services from devices will help reduce potential security vulnerabilities.

A well-configured firewall can stop breaches before they penetrate deep into the network being used. An Internet gateway can prevent employees from accessing websites or online services that pose a threat to personal data security.

In order to be protected from malicious software, it is also necessary to use products such as antivirus and antispam, which regularly scan the information system network and detect dangers. However, the installation of these products is not enough, it should be kept up to date and the necessary files should be scanned regularly. 

The primary measures that can be taken to protect information technology systems containing personal data against unauthorized access threats over the internet are firewalls and gateways. These will be the first line of defense against attacks from environments such as the internet.

In addition to the use of strong passwords and passwords, limiting the number of password attempts to protect against common attacks such as the use of brute force algorithm (BFA), ensuring that passwords and passwords are changed at regular intervals, opening the administrator account and admin authority only when needed, and disconnecting from the data controller. For employees, access should be limited by methods such as deleting the account or closing the logins without wasting time.

Access to systems containing personal data should also be limited. In this context, employees should be granted access to the extent necessary for their jobs, duties, and authorities and responsibilities, and access to the relevant systems should be provided by using a user name and password.
