Summertime is hacker time

Vacation time also means attack time - at least from the point of view of cyber criminals.

Why companies are particularly at risk now - and how the DEFENDERBOX can help

Vacation time also means attack time - at least from the point of view of cyber criminals. While the IT departments in many companies are working with a low headcount, hackers strike in a targeted manner.

A recent analysis by Stoïk shows: Over 50 % of attacks on tourism and leisure companies occur in summer. And the risk has long since also affected sectors outside the travel industry.

Because:

  • Updates are postponed,
  • IT systems are insufficiently monitored,
  • Responsibilities are unclear,
  • unused accesses remain active.
 

With the DEFENDERBOX we offer a proactive security solution for medium-sized companies that really helps: because it is just as attentive in summer as it is in winter.

Our technology automatically detects security gaps, documents vulnerabilities in an audit-proof manner - and provides specific recommendations for action.

10 simple measures for more safety in summertime:

  1. Train employees
  2. Activate 2FA
  3. Renew passwords
  4. Use early warning systems
  5. Check backups
  6. Restrict access rights
  7. Update software
  8. Have emergency plans ready
  9. Inform customers
  10. Deactivate unused systems
