Data security and compliance company SecurityMetrics stepped up in the data security game and offered a free cyber assistance hotline. The company launched a 24-hour cybersecurity advice hotline to provide help to any cyber threats amid flu pandemic.
The company headquartered in Utah is sending help to businesses who are struggling with cyber attacks. The advice hotline is currently available to any company for free, with operators providing guidance on networks security and responding to phishing attempts.
During the flu pandemic, a lot of businesses have witnessed an increase in the cyber attacks, when businesses are on remote work. Criminals are taking advantage of the situation to access confidential files containing significant financial information and other valuable documents.
Since more firms are exposed to vulnerabilities due to the pandemic, businesses lack professional help that would protect the business from attacks. SecurityMetrics understood the risks and offer to help those companies suffering from cyber threats at this rough time.
“Whether a business is worried about protecting against phishing emails, maintaining data security compliance, or believes they are currently infected with malware, SecurityMetrics is available and ready to help. We want to do our part to protect business around the world from cyber attacks,” said CEO Brad Caldwell.
The free cybersecurity hotline is available worldwide at 801-995-6500. The toll-free hotline for the US and Canada is 877-705-6074 and +44 203-014-7831 for the UK. SecurityMetrics is also accepting data security services at this time of need, helping customers achieve the highest data protection in compliance with set standards.
Massive Cyber Attacks
According to the SecurityMetrics Security Operations Center handling the concerns, the amount of cyber attacks at this time is significantly higher. Pre pandemic period records minimal reports but since companies are allowing people to work remotely, hackers are paying more attention.
Networks have tampered and hackers target employee emails to access company platforms. Systems are easily infected with malware from a link sent via email. Hence, many businesses are suffering from security breaches.
Through free security advice, SecurityMetrics can guide organizations through data security testing, compliance and mandates, and assessments. After filing a report and asking for advice, SecurityMetrics offer security services to enhance the system and network protection.
SecurityMetrics has over 15 years of forensic investigations experience in penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and compliance audits. The company has tested over 2 million systems for security vulnerabilities.
