We have seen a definite increase in Ransomware attacks on small businesses. Ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to block access to a computer system until a sum of money is paid. The most common method of spreading this attack is through email attachments.
We can’t stress this enough, DO NOT OPEN ATTACHMENTS and DO NOT CLICK ON ANY LINKS unless you are 100% sure of what they are. If you have any doubts, please connect with our help desk.
Here is the real problem, antivirus programs are not able to protect against these viruses. Users must be vigilant about what links and attachments they select. Business owners MUST have Disaster Recovery in place to protect their data.
Please forward this to anyone that might want to know how to protect their data from ransomeware attacks.
