Operation Cyber Aware Documentary.
Operation Cyber Aware is a documentary focusing on the ransomware crisis & the growing cyber risks we face around the world every single day. If you think you’re too small to become a target of these attacks think again. “The toughest thing for people to realize about cybercrime is – Don’t just think they’re going after the big guys, they’re not.
Small to medium-sized businesses all the time, are victims more often than not. If I were a bad guy, hacking into the big industries, I’d look for ingress points small to medium-sized businesses that deal with big businesses every day.
And you don’t hear about it in the news because the glamorous one is the big guy, the big bank, or the medical facility gets hacked. They don’t talk about the little guy that was an ingress point; it just doesn’t sell.” Patrick Gray Fmr. FBI Special Agent, Computer Crimes Squad, the purpose of this short film is to raise awareness and provide key insight into ransomware and protecting your data.
Watch Operation Cyber Aware and see how organizations, both large and small, struggle to keep their data safe from ransomware. There is no silver bullet to prevent cyber-attacks. A key element has a layered security approach.
Critical public infrastructure, businesses of all sizes, and everyday consumers are vulnerable now more than ever. The severity of these attacks is increasing at an alarming rate, specifically in ransomware. Threat intelligence data gathered from the front lines of thousands of ransomware incidents we have seen helps us understand how these attacks occur and what can be done to protect each unique target.
We encourage individuals, businesses, and government agencies to educate their organization on cybercrime & how to protect their data. As seen in Carolin’s situation, we do not know what it’s like to lose our data until it happens to us. Let’s get serious about cyber security and be proactive with improved cyber security habits!
