Worms can delete or modify files, use up all of your bandwidth, or install more malware on your device.

Hybrid cloud solutions have become more popular because they offer businesses a more balanced approach to their computing demands.

Some of the benefits of these solutions include the following-

There is no reason everyone in the company needs to be able to access every file, document, and application.

Make sure you’re regularly monitoring who has access to what files, AND be sure to delete users once they leave the organization.

Make each day count!

Update your software when promoted!

Up-to-date software prevents hackers from gaining access to your network through any holes that would otherwise remain unfixed.

Patching these vulnerabilities as soon as they’re detected will ensure your information is kept secure.

Be careful of social media scams!

Cybercriminals target social media-savvy students who spend a lot of time online.

Here are three things to watch out for…

1. Fill-in-the-blank social media “quizzes.” These can reveal information hackers can use to guess your passwords
2. Sketchy links. These can lead to phishing websites that will steal your information.
3. Message scams. Hackers will try to befriend you via messages to get you to send them money or hack into your account.

Most schools have secure networks; however, not all schoolwork is done at school.

If your students work anywhere away from campus—at home, while traveling, or even at a coffee shop with public WiFi—you need to use a VPN to prevent hackers from having access to your network!

Students - Make sure to encrypt your data!

Encryption secures and protects any data that you send online from cyber criminals or even just tech-savvy nosey peers.
