Starting up or early days for your SME<\/strong>, testing your business model, securing your systems and data – All costly exercises and in the early days money is tight so there is a temptation to download Pirated<\/strong> software from the myriad of Torrent<\/strong> platforms – DONT! Why? because number 1 it is ILLEGAL!<\/strong> but put that aside – this sword is double edged because deploying Pirated<\/strong> software and programs opens a back door for Cybercriminals<\/strong> to infilatrate your systems with ease and in turn a suite of highly sophisticated Malware.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
