There's been a massive spike in real-world malware attacks lately on average businesses—not just attempts, but full-blown breaches where threat actors gain complete remote control of systems.
These attacks almost always end in ransomware, data theft, or total system compromise.
Where I used to see occasional phishing or intrusion attempts, I’m now seeing successful attacks almost daily. Just this week, one careless click on a fake file by a single employee could have given attackers full access to an entire company's network, backups, and data—completely wiping everything out.
If proper security tools and procedures hadn’t been in place, that business would have been destroyed.
This stuff is as serious—and terrifying—as it gets. And yet, far too many business owners and individuals still believe it “won’t happen to them.”
