Worried about the impact of a cyber attack on your business? We can help you put the worries to rest.
Why are Small to Medium Businesses a target?
Small businesses are often the targets of cyberattacks because they have a moderate amount of data but lack the resources to have strong security.
How do these breaches happen?
End Users
- Misaddressed emails pose a risk of unintentionally disclosing sensitive information to the wrong recipient.
- Stolen or lost devices lead to unauthorized access to sensitive data.
- Malware distribution by clicking on certain links can initiate the download and installation of malware onto users' devices.
Your Network
- Using the ISP-supplied modem as the main security defense.
- Consumer-grade devices such as routers may not provide robust protection.
- Misconfigured firewalls leading to breaches to your network and giving access to your data.
Access
- Lack of Multi-Factor Authentication making gaining access easier.
- Poor processes and excess levels of access given can inadvertently get information in the wrong hands.
Software & Process
- Weak anti-spam software increases risk of malware and security breaches by allowing potentially harmful intrusions.
- Phishing attempts from what appear to be legitimate sources attract employees to click on malicious links, download infected attachments or give remote access and risk your data being stolen.

Cybersecurity FAQs
Who needs cyber security?
Anyone who uses the internet connected to networks, computers, mobile devices, software, and applications. Cyber security defends against attackers seeking to gain access to your data. Good examples of cyber security measures include strong passwords, two-factor authentication, staff education, and pre-prepared disaster recovery plans.
What is a Data Breach?
A data breach is when an intruder gets unauthorized access to your information. It’s often a PR nightmare having to inform the customers and suppliers that you, and maybe their data, has been stolen.
What is a Firewall and why is it used?
A firewall is a network security system set on the boundaries of the system/network that monitors and controls network traffic. Firewalls are mainly used to protect the system/network from viruses, worms, malware, etc. Firewalls can also be to prevent remote access and content filtering.
What is Malware?
Malware, short for malicious software, is a program or file that infects your system to gather sensitive data, disrupt operations, or spy on your digital activity.
What is a Keylogger?
A keylogger is a malicious tool that records what is typed (a keystroke) on a keyboard. Keyloggers are used to capture passwords, secret question responses, and any other sensitive information.
What is a Trojan horse?
A Trojan horse is where malicious software cloaks itself as harmless software within an email. When this file is opened, the malicious threat is automatically unleashed into the system.
What is Ransomware?
Ransomware is a cyberattack where the attacker forces you to pay a ransom fee to regain access to your system or files.
What is Phishing?
Phishing is where a hacker contacts you posing as a trustworthy person or business via email, instant message, or text, wanting you to click on fake links to sites or open attachments, so they can steal data or install malicious software.
Why would I use a managed backup service?
By using a third-party to manage your data, and store your data at a different location to your business, this will improve your data security. You’re also able to guarantee that your network is restored, regardless of who shows up to the office that day or even if there is still an office – as was the case for those businesses who experienced the Christchurch earthquakes.
What are black hat, white hat, and grey hat hackers?
Black hat hackers are known for having vast knowledge about breaking into computer networks. They can write malware and misuse their skills to steal information or use the hacked system for malicious purposes.
White hat hackers use their powers for good deeds. These are mostly hired by companies as security specialists that attempt to find and fix vulnerabilities and security holes in the systems. They use their skills to help make security better.
Grey hat hackers are an amalgamation of a white hat and black hat hacker. They look for system vulnerabilities without the owner’s permission. If they find any vulnerabilities, they report it to the owner. Unlike black hat hackers, they do not exploit the vulnerabilities found.
