As though there weren’t enough problems, websites can be compromised, becoming sources of computer virus infection for your clients. Talk with us about #CyberLiability and #DataBreach insurance. 1-800-548-2329.
Google’s survey says there are many more compromised legitimate sites than there are sites designed to spread malware. Click here for a commentary from our client IT Radix and access to the Google Malware Dashboard.
Once a legitimate site is compromised, all the unpleasant things you’ve heard of start happening: malware recording your entries or your clients’ entries, spreading viruses, and so on. Your site is likely to be black listed by search engines. It takes a long time and a lot of work to come back from that.
As soon as IT Radix scared us with this topic, we ran out to their suggested screening site http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/scanner/ and checked our sites. Everything was fine, today. Our site providers keep track of this, but with the damage that we could face, it’s important to keep checking, and to keep our insurance in place.
