Breached? Burn it to the ground

In today’s business world, everyone knows that all computers on your network need to be covered by antivirus software. Microsoft is aware that this is an important layer of protection because they offer a free version installed with each Windows operating system. However, you may not be fully protected with just that software. Even Microsoft offers a paid version of the software for more advanced protection. Cross Link Consulting uses Sentinel One as their software of choice.

Should a hacker break through your antivirus protection, the only thing left to do is to “burn it to the ground” where a reformat or a replacement of the affected computer is necessary. There is no way to fully monitor the extent of the damage that the break caused, so the only way to make sure your system is fully protected is to start over.

It is too late to establish a good antivirus and breach management process after a hack of your system. Contact Cross Link Consulting today to set up the best antivirus process for your system, as well as come up with a plan of action should a breach get into your system. Give us a call at 803-279-1100 or email info@crosslinkconsulting.net
