Ransonware has become a plague for business on the internet. There are companies that sell ransonware services to anyone to target any person or business!
There are 3 straight forword steps to protect your business from Ransomware.
- Keep your computers up to date with the lastest security and firmware patches.
- Have every device protected with a paid Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware software subscription and making sure that software is up to date as well.
- Data Backups. This is the most important step.
The 1st two reduces your chances of falling victum to attacks. The 3rd step allows your business to recover its important data with minimal losses. Nightly data backups to a secure onsite backup location as well as a 2nd backup to a secure off site location. Just as important is to monitor those backups to ensure they are happening and completing successfully.
We offer a backup and monitor service. We charge a half an hour of time a month for this and it includes any software plus a secure off site data storage location. Every backup job sends out notifications for status and our team reads these reports daily and acts accordingly when issues arise to make sure your data is backed up and protected.
We also offer solutions for onsite data storage and data sharing amongst staff.
