Cyber Attacks Can Happen to Anyone

How Can You Protect Your Business?

It is virtually impossible to run a business today that doesn’t use electronic data and record keeping in some fashion. As a result Security risks are an unfortunate but a real threat for just about every business

There are steps you can do to help protect yourself and your Website

Department of Homeland Security

Direct quote from their web site

https://www.dhs.gov/how-do-i/protect-myself-cyber-attacks

The following preventative strategies are intended to help our public and private partners pro-actively look for emails attempting to deceive users into "clicking the link" or opening attachments to seemingly real websites:

• Never click on links in emails. If you do think the email is legitimate, whether from a third party retailer or primary retailer, go to the site and log on directly. Whatever notification or service offering was referenced in the email, if valid, will be available via regular log on
• Never open the attachments. Typically, retailers will not send emails with attachments. If there is any doubt, contact the retailer directly and ask whether the email with the attachment was sent from them
• Do not give out personal information over the phone or in an email unless completely sure. Social engineering is a process of deceiving individuals into providing personal information to seemingly trusted agents who turn out to be malicious actors. If contacted over the phone by someone claiming to be a retailer or collection agency, do not give out your personal information. Ask them to provide you their name and a call-back number. Just because they may have some of your information does not mean they are legitimate!

Other practical tips to protect yourself from cyber-attacks:

• Set secure passwords and don't share them with anyone. Avoid using common words, phrases, or personal information and update regularly
• Keep your operating system, browser, anti-virus and other critical software up to date. Security updates and patches are available for free from major companies
• Verify the authenticity of requests from companies or individuals by contacting them directly. If you are asked to provide personal information via email, you can independently contact the company directly to verify this request
• Pay close attention to website URLs. Pay attention to the URLs of websites you visit. Malicious websites sometimes use a variation in common spelling or a different domain (for example, .com instead of .net) to deceive unsuspecting computer users
• For e-Mail, turn off the option to automatically download attachments
• Be suspicious of unknown links or requests sent through email or text message. Do not click on unknown links or answer strange questions sent to your mobile device, regardless of who the sender appears to be

What to Look for in a VPN

When researching for a good VPN company there are four critical security features to look for

Military Grade 256-bit Encryption
The first feature is a VPN is military-grade (256-bit) encryption. The 256-bit encryption has an encryption key length of 2265. that is 1.2 x 1077 possible combinations needed to unveil a single encryption key. That’s about 115 Quattuorvigintillion possibilities. The numbers are indeed mind boggling. But thats the idea, to make it virtually impossible to crack. Brute-forcing is simply not possible with 256-bit encryption

Servers and Locations
Next be sure that your VPN provider has over 1,000 Servers and to be located Worldwide. This ensures that there are always enough connection points and IP addresses to offer you a high-quality connection

Easy Connect
3rd is a VPN company that connects automatically or allows you to start a secure connection very easily. Having to log in and out of your VPN every time you want to get online can become a nuisance and you may at times just forget to log on

No Logging
Last to look for is a " Policy". When choosing a VPN provider they should keep NO logs on users. This means the VPN should not record what websites you visit, what you download, or any form of traffic whatsoever. If a VPN provider logs IP addresses, that provider many not be optimal for privacy. The service should not log any user data or ever retain logs for periods of time

Free VPNs

These companies are plentiful but these normally will share your browsing data with third parties. Your best bet is to purchase a subscription from a provider that offers a no-log VPN, which means the vendor won’t record your browsing data and later sell it to the highest bidder. When selecting a provider, be sure to read the fine print. Many are clear about how they treat your data, though 26 of the most popular free VPNs have actually admitted to logging user data despite claiming otherwise

NordVPN

A Panama based online protection service that allows you to sustain your online freedom through its VPN browser feature. The service does have presence in 60 countries with the help of 4,700+ servers worldwide. The only VPN that RSH Web Services trust, use and would recommend. Read our review on NordVPN

Dangers of Wi-Fi hot spots

One of the biggest threats for free Wi-Fi is the ability for the hacker to position himself between you and the connection point. So instead of talking directly with the hotspot, you're sending your information to the hacker, who then relays it on. The hacker now has access to all the information such as important emails, credit card information and even security credentials to your business network. Once the hacker has that he can access your systems as if he were you

Hackers will also use unsecured Wi-Fi's to distribute malware. If you have enabled "file-sharing" across your network, the hacker can then plant infected software called Phishing on your computer and on your network. Many hackers have even hacked the "connection point" directly, causing a "pop-up" window to appear during the connection process. Sometimes these Pop-Ups will offer an upgrade to a piece of popular software. Clicking this then installs the malware

Even those who will take all the possible public Wi-Fi security precautions will come across issues. It is just a fact of life. That is why it is so important to keep a up-to-date Internet Security Solution installed and running. The top consumer security software will also offer business protection solutions, so you can protect yourself and your business at the same time

There will be a time when an unsecured, free, public Wi-Fi is the only connection available, But understanding the risks of public Wi-Fi will help you to ensure that you and your information will not become just another hacking statistic

SSL Security Certificates

This is a security feature that you install to your Website. SSL certificates change the beginning of a URL or website address from “HTTP” to “HTTPS” and some times will add a padlock icon or green bar to the address bar in a browser. Having an Security Certificate is the best way to protect your website visitors and make sure all of their valuable data is protected. SSL cert's encrypt all data transmitted to and from a website, preventing attacks where someone could hijack the data before it reaches its destination. Such data may include credit card information, emails and addresses, passwords, private messages, or other sensitive data

When choosing your SSL provider, there are several things to look for:

Who is the Certificate Authority the company uses for their certificates?
What kind of support and documentation does the company provide?
Does the provider make SSL management easy and straightforward?
Does the company provide information about each certificate to help you make the right decision for your website?
