Microsoft Office 365 in the Mail

Did you know that dropping a malware-infected flash drive in company parking lots is an old school tactic for breaching your business? Hackers will purposely drop a very dangerous payload in the guise of a lost, but free, flash drive on the ground in hopes that an employee will pick it up and, out of morbid curiosity, plug it into their workstation to see what’s on it. This tactic works very well, so please remember to continuously speak to your staff about these ongoing threats. Continual education and awareness is one of the cornerstones of cyber security in the office. Never plug any foreign device into a work computer under any circumstances. If you are a business owner, this goes for your home computer or laptop, as well. You don’t have to run anything on the flash drive to get infected. It happens automatically and many times it happens invisibly.
