Safeguard Your Firm During This Critical Time

Last week, the world experienced what some are calling the largest IT outage in history, and bad actors could exploit this as an opportunity to steal your data. 

According to the Financial Times, cyber watchdogs in different countries have already issued warnings about an influx of phishing scams pretending to help with recovery from the outage. 

Funeral homes are especially vulnerable to online scams because of the sensitive nature of private information they collect from families for cases.
