The Growing Threat of Cyber Attacks
Cyber criminals are constantly evolving their tactics. Common threats include:
Phishing emails that trick employees into revealing sensitive information
Ransomware that locks your data until a ransom is paid
Malware that can steal, corrupt, or destroy business data
Data breaches that expose confidential client or employee information
A single successful attack can result in financial loss, reputational damage, and legal liabilities. That’s why proactive cybersecurity is essential.
