Potential Security Breaches are Everywhere

Greg Edwards

Potential security breaches are everywhere, yet we tend to think of the base connected device as secure. We worry about the software we add to our computer, but we also think a simple firewall will stop threats from getting through.

We are at risk of potential security breaches any time we allow data over the Internet, exposing ourselves to attack or even worse, theft.

So you think you aren’t that exposed to potential security breaches? Think again! Your television, video cameras, smart phones, even your security system is a potential security breach.

Think of the baby monitor(another Potential Security Breach) that you’re able to look at online! That is a gateway for hackers to get into your system because it allows your data to be sent and received over the Internet.

Potential Security Breaches are a part of our life, as we push more data back and forth. Even refrigerators are at risk of being hacked when you are able to control them online.

We’re constantly being sent updates and patches for the software we have on our computers, no matter if it's a PC or an Apple device, the patches are there for a reason, and most of the time it’s because somebody’s system ended up being attacked. Patches are developed to stop the attack on other customers computers.

The best thing you can do to protect yourself from Potential Security Breaches is to get educated by security experts who are knowledgeable and available to protect your systems.

Spammers are potential security threats, and at the very least are a productivity disruption in organizations. Just think of how much time you've spent dealing with spam.

Opting out might seem like a reasonable solution, but quite often, opting out only causes even more spam because the spammer turns up the junk messages hoping you’ll be attracted to a different style message.

Every business needs to have a top-notch security plan in place, to combat potential security breaches.

Spammers, hackers and cyber assaults are only going to intensify, causing even more potential security breaches as they look for new targets of opportunity.
