Viruses
Viruses are one of the most common threats that hurt a company and often implemented from external hackers. Your employees can easily and unknowingly download a virus just from opening up a fake email or visiting an unsecure website. To prevent this, always train your employees on how to identify phishing emails and how to quickly verify if a site is secure. You can also set up a company network to block users from accessing sites that are not secure and not allow employees to use their personal email while at work. Also, regularly use anti-virus software to detect viruses and ensure all workstations have an active virus scanner in place.
