~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Paul Verbinnen, President Sard Verbinnen: Cyber Security: "Communications Considerations for Data Breaches & Cyber Attacks" On Wednesday March 30th, Mr. Paul Verbinnen will provide a thourough overview on how the effects of data breaches and cyber attacks can be contained and/or mitigated by proper commuincation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Urgent Ransomware Warning There has been a significant increase in the proliferation of Ransomware. Executing malicious attachments or visiting compromised sites can render all of your data unreadable. This type of attack takes advantage of both computer vulnerabilities (unpatched systems) as well as a lack of security awareness (social engineering tactics). IMG recommends you take the following actions to guard against this form of attack: * Educate employees about Ransomeware. * Remind employees not to open attachments they are not otherwise expecting or attachments from untrusted sources. * Remind employees not to follow links embedded in e-mail messages from untrusted sources and to be discriminating if the link is provided from a trusted source. * Confirm systems are patched. * Ensure antivirus signatures are up to date. * Certifythat all data is backed up and restore procedures have been tested. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ INVESTIGATIVE SERVICES: DIGITAL FORENSICS/CYBER SECURITY - Cybercrime is at an all-time high and has become an ever increasing threat.
