Phishing attempts to steal your passwords, data, or money by imitating trusted contacts. It’s dangerous because even one “successful” click can expose your business to major losses. Using strong email filters and staff training greatly reduces the risk.
Malware spreads through infected attachments, drive-by website downloads, bad software updates, or USB devices. Protect your business by updating software, blocking suspicious attachments, and avoiding unknown downloads.
Quickly disconnect affected systems from the internet, alert your cybersecurity provider, and do not pay ransoms. Document what happened and work with professionals (like Cyber Secure Online) to recover quickly and report the incident if required.
Always install updates for Windows, Mac, browsers, antivirus, and business apps as soon as possible. Cyber Secure Online handles this with automated updates and 24/7 monitoring.
