What risks do I face?

Viruses and malware and ransomware, oh my! These are just a few of the risks that users face every time they connect to the Internet. Phishing emails are sent to unsuspecting users with links that, when clicked, try to install software on your laptop, pc, and even your mobile phone. This allows them to do things you wouldn’t want them doing. In some cases they can take over the machine and steal information from the machine. With ransomware, they can even encrypt your machine entirely, after which they’ll happily sell you a key to unlock your files but for a healthy price of course. Losing access to your computing device, having your data stolen and sold to the highest bidder, and having your bank account emptied out-all of these are very real risks that people suffer every day while using the Internet. You can go a long way towards managing these risks by taking a proactive approach to risk management for you, your company, and your employees.
