Cybersecurity has been one of the top priorities for many years now and 2023 will be no different.

We all need to have a proactive mindset in this area in order to constantly ensure our company’s systems are secure and protected from internal and external threats. As 2022 drew to an end, we were scrambling to mitigate the impacts of a critical vulnerability known as ‘Log4j” which is an emerging major threat that could potentially put many systems at risk. If left unpatched, cyber attackers could use this vulnerability to take over entire computer servers, devices and applications.Cybercrime is constantly evolving, and threats become more and more sophisticated. This includes viruses, malware, ransomware, phishing, and hacking. And business is booming for cybercriminals everywhere— even the best systems are not immune from these challenges.

A recent report from RiskIQ found that every single minute, cybercriminals cost the global economy $2.9 million, with a global annual cost of $1.5 trillion.

Staying ahead of new and emerging threats, identifying ongoing risks, ensuring systems are protected and employees are educated appropriately on cybersecurity risks will be a top priority to protect systems and data from this ongoing and increasing threat. This year we will introduce new security awareness training that will not only help you be secure at work but also protect you and your family from malicious attacks. All our staff (UCG and MVP) will receive an invitation to the training modules. The training and other controls we have in place will further enhance our security profile to retain our ISO27001 accreditation by mid-year.

Be vigilant… think before you click.
