Did you know? A small business is more likely to suffer cyberattacks than other businesses , but they are the ones that protect themselves the least.
“Though nearly half of cyberattacks are aimed at small businesses, only 37% of small business owners reported believing they are at risk to fall victim to a cyberattack,” states the survey. “Alarmingly, about one-third also said they are not confident they could recover if their business was attacked.”

YES! Employees do work more productively at home! Although remote workers may have more distractions to deal with, they are typically more productive once they get down to work. In a Stanford study, remote workers were found to be 13% more productive compared to their office counterparts.
The craziest part about this hack?
We've been warning about it for YEARS.
"Spend a few minutes searching Twitter, Reddit or any number of other social media sites and you’ll find countless examples of researchers posting proof of being able to access so-called “human-machine interfaces” — basically web pages designed to interact remotely with various complex systems, such as those that monitor and/or control things like power, water, sewage and manufacturing plants.
And yet, there have been precious few known incidents of malicious hackers abusing this access to disrupt these complex systems. That is, until this past Monday, when Florida county sheriff Bob Gualtieri held a remarkably clear-headed and fact-filled news conference about an attempt to poison the water supply of Oldsmar, a town of around 15,000 not far from Tampa."
