Empowering Small Practices To Deliver The Best Care THE GREATEST THREAT TO YOUR NETWORK Might Be Your Staff

BE WARY OF DIGITAL IMPOSTORS Many hackers gain access to networks by pretending to be a legitimate user. Imagine that a nefarious user stumbles upon an employee’s Facebook password. All of a sudden, it’s impossible for you to tell that your employee isn’t actually who they say they are. They ask you for a password. You give it to them. What seemed like a simple interaction was actually a hack taking place. The best way to avoid this fate is to ask a question that you’re certain an impostor couldn’t answer or to make the person show up in person to get the password. You never know who’s hiding behind that account. If you have even the slightest doubt, it’s better to be safe than sorry. KEEP YOUR TEAM IN THE KNOW What these strategies demonstrate is that your network is only as strong as its least-informed user. When you don’t teach your team about the latest cybercrime strategies, you put your entire organization at risk. Just as important as teaching them about attacks is teaching them about defense. Make security patch updates mandatory and give your staff a crash course in password strategies. You wouldn’t believe how many businesses have lost money because one staff member makes their password “password.” You should also create a system that makes it easy for anyone to raise the alarm. Should somebody in one department receive a suspicious email, you need to report the danger to the entire team. At AZCOMP, we are technology consultants who offer services to maintain and monitor your entire system. Additionally, we are happy to train you and your team on how to avoid >Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4
