What is Cybersecurity?
Cybersecurity protects computer systems, networks, and data from digital attacks, unauthorised access, and damage through technical controls, policies, and user awareness.
ERP Security Threats
ERP systems are high-value targets: they contain financial data, customer PII, and supplier contracts. Common threats: SQL injection (input sanitisation), privilege escalation (role misuse), phishing (credential theft), ransomware (backup and recovery critical), and API exploitation (proper authentication). ERPNext mitigation: permission framework, 2FA, IP whitelist, and encrypted connections (HTTPS).
Security Best Practices for ERPNext
Enable HTTPS (SSL certificate). Enforce strong passwords and 2FA for all users. Regular backups (daily offsite). Restrict admin access to specific IPs. Audit user activity via the system log. Remove old user accounts promptly. Keep ERPNext and server packages updated. For sensitive industries, conduct periodic penetration testing.
