From operating various hosting companies and building business websites since 2011, one of the biggest issues we see clients encounter is that of Cyber security. The inspiration for this episode came from an (avoidable) incident with a client who came to us late last year to solve their issues. Their business, which depended wholly on their website was almost crippled as a result of an unsecured server and not too good security practices. The problem was fixed and inspired a book on the topic (which is being edited now). In this topic, your host, Peter would cover: 🔹 common types of cyber threats 🔹 consequences of a cyber attack on small businesses 🔹 what cybersecurity hygiene is and why you should practise it 🔹 the importance of your employees and also what to do if you are the target of a cyber attack. Cyber threats worsen by the day, especially in this age of A.I where a realistic clone of your voice can be made with any 1-minute recording of it. ******************************************************** Do you have nagging security issues in your organization?
