1.) CYBER TRAINING: New Report Paints Black Picture for Small Business Cybersecurity. <\/strong>A Report by Proband Research has painted an austere picture for Small Businesses when it came to computer security. In the last 12 months alone 2.39 million businesses have experienced some form of cyber crime, with it being estimated that 11% of businesses and 8% of charities have been the victim of at least one cyber crime in the last 12 months with 69% of UK small businesses currently use weak passwords to access important documents. Analysing hundreds of small to mid-sized organisations, the Birmingham-based business conducted in-depth cyber-security risk assessments to reveal the current state of affairs and areas of critical improvement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2).\u00a0<\/strong>PHISHING:<\/strong>\u00a0Why you need to Report \u201cPhishing\u201d Attempts<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Phishing<\/strong>\u00a0is a cybercrime technique used to deceive individuals into providing sensitive information, such as passwords, credit card numbers, or personal details. Attackers typically impersonate trusted entities like banks, government agencies, or well-known companies, often using fake emails, messages, or websites to lure victims. These messages often contain malicious links or attachments designed to steal data or install harmful software. By exploiting trust and urgency, phishing aims to trick users into taking unsafe actions, like clicking on links or entering login details. This form of cyberattack poses significant risks, especially in personal finance, corporate security, and identity theft cases.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
