“It didn’t seem suspicious…”
These are the last words you want to hear from an employee when you find yourself on the receiving end of phishing, ransomware, or worse. The truth is for most businesses, the individual user remains the biggest vulnerability.
“If I just hadn’t clicked…”
When the biggest vulnerability is people, your biggest protection is training. The safety of your business, your customer’s information, and your money rests on how well your employees can spot potential scams, screen emails, and avoid falling prey to common phishing methods.
“It wasn’t the biggest breach…”
Auto dealerships are real targets: Arrigo Dodge Chrysler Jeep in West Palm Beach was hit, and they spent $285,000 in new equipment costs alone.
For a business owner, every loss hurts. Due to the volume of cybercrime, the authorities are focused on the biggest and worst offenders. Fact: the FBI won’t take any cybersecurity cases under one million dollars.
