Dear Readers,
We want to bring to your attention that the ongoing ransomware threat has not ended. In fact, recent activities indicate an increase in attacks, particularly targeting on-premise servers.
To enhance your data security and minimize potential risks, we strongly urge you to take the following precautions:
- Daily Backup & Offsite Storage
- Ensure that your database is backed up daily.
- Transfer the backup files to a secure external hard disk and, if possible, take it home every day by any authority person in your company.
- This precaution will ensure that, in the event of an attack, you have the latest data available for restoration.
- Server Shutdown During Non-Operational Hours
- Shut down your on-premise servers after working hours, during weekends, and especially before long holidays.
- This significantly reduces the window of exposure to potential cyber threats.
- Firewall & Security Software Updates
- Ensure that your servers are equipped with the latest security updates, including firewalls, antivirus, and endpoint protection solutions.
- Regularly check for and install updates to safeguard against evolving threats.
While no security measure guarantees 100% protection, these steps will significantly reduce the risks associated with ransomware attacks. Let’s work together to keep your systems and data secure.
If you need further guidance or assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
Stay safe and secure,
Nebula Technical Team.
