Spotting a Ransomware Attack Before Actual Damage Is Done

Sep 07, 2021


A ransomware attack is one of the most devastating things that could happen to your practice.


This is where cybercriminals take over your network and encrypt all your clinic data—rendering them unreadable and useless. Then they make you pay a ransom fee (a big one).


These hackers can do so much damage because they secretly break into your system and stay in it for weeks (or months!) before they actually launch the attack.
