Anti-Virus Software

In the middle ages, industrious castle builders protected their wares with high walls and moats to keep the robbers at bay. Today’s busy companies face the same risks from raiders and their wares are still at risk.

Unfortunately simply building a high wall is not enough to keep sophisticated hackers from gaining access to your precious resources. These hackers are ever present at the door and they are always trying new ways to get in, which means that companies must continually update their defenses. And if a company gets distracted from defending the wall for just a moment, the hackers will pounce.

Anti-virus software is the first step in building a defense against these high-tech marauders, but it doesn’t end there. Having an IT Management partner like CopperTree ensures that your defenses stay strong and ahead of potential threats. Don’t get left in the dark while your business is emptied of its valuable resources.

The Raiders Arsenal is always growing; today they are using:

  • Viruses & Malicious Software that is designed to purposefully harm your data
    Many cybercriminals distribute viruses through Trojan horses that look friendly, and that quickly spread to as many computers as quickly as possible
  • Ransomware that captures your essential data and then holds your company hostage
    Blackmail is becoming main-stream as hackers hold personal or proprietary information hostage
  • Worms & Email Loopholes that insidiously replicate themselves and spread to other computers
    Networks are the target of worms as they pass (often unnoticed) from computer to computer
  • Phishing & Spam that slows down your computer and drains your resources
    Irreverent and inappropriate emails are sent en masse to a large number of recipients
