Malware & Ransomware Attacks

Ransomware is a type of malicious software also known as Malware, it is one of the most common threats faced by practices today. The way the randsom ware works is that once it’s taken over your computer, threatens you with harm, usually by denying you access to your data and encrypting your data so you can’t access it; this is  a big threat to the patient data. The financial threat it has is the “attacker” demands a ransom from the victim “the practice”, promising to decrypt or unlock the data. But unfortunately not always truthfully to restore access to the data upon payment.  The costs can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands, payable to cyber criminals in Bitcoin. We have protected our practices from this and also helped save many after being affected by this form of Malware attack. Our company also holds half yearly randsom ware education seminars free for our customers staff to be educated further.  Most cases randsom ware has affected the system by an email or attachment opened by the staff hence why our educational seminars are important.
