Cyber Security (CONT’D FROM PAGE 28)

This article has discussed some of the fastest grow- ing security breaches stemming from social engineering. Experts also suggest businesses take the following mea- sures. All of them can help reduce the chances of being hit with ransomware, a form of malware which requires targeted businesses to make costly payouts to either re- gain access to encrypted data or prevent the release of business information to competitors: 1. Beware malware-ridden emails: Phishing emails trick recipients into clicking a link to a toxic website or opening a compromised attachment. The result is the installation of a keylogger software that collects keystrokes for critical bank account information. SOLUTION: Train employees to handle all emails with suspicion. 2. Update hardware: Old computers and routers offer access points for hackers. “Anything older than say 15 years was designed without security in mind,” says Jack- son. SOLUTION: Replace old equipment with new models.

3. Patch software: Outdated versions of operating sys- tems or office programs are riddled with security bugs. “Unpatched software is involved in 20 percent to 40 per- cent of all digital breaches,” says Grimes. SOLUTION: Up- date operating programs with the latest versions. Insurance Policies No business can eliminate the risk of cyber fraud. The right insurance though, can lessen the blow when a breach occurs. “Insurance can protect businesses from so- called ‘first party risk’ of their own losses,” says Reynolds. “Policies can also protect against losses to third parties such as customers and vendors, obviating lawsuits against the insured company.” (For more details see the sidebar, “Reducing Risk with Cyber Insurance.”) Even the best insurance policy is no substitute for op- erating procedures that help stop cyber theft in its tracks. Employees from the CEO on down need to be trained on the most effective responses to thieves who are skilled at social engineering. “The one piece of advice I have is to be suspicious,” says Schaeffer. “Make sure everyone knows that if something looks a little odd, or if someone asks for something out of the ordinary, speak up. It’s better to go overboard on security than to go the other way.”
