Should I shut down my internet if I get hacked?

Create a blog post subtitle that summarizes your post in a few short, punchy sentences and entices your audience to continue reading.

Welcome to your blog post. Use this space to connect with your readers and potential customers in a way that’s current and interesting. Think of it as an ongoing conversation where you can share updates about business, trends, news, and more.

“Do you have a design in mind for your blog? Whether you prefer a trendy postcard look or you’re going for a more editorial style blog - there’s a stunning layout for everyone.”

You’ll be posting loads of engaging content, so be sure to keep your blog organized with Categories that also allow visitors to explore more of what interests them.

Create Relevant Content

Writing a blog is a great way to position yourself as an authority in your field and captivate your readers’ attention. Do you want to improve your site’s SEO ranking? Consider topics that focus on relevant keywords and relate back to your website or business. You can also add hashtags (#vacation #dream #summer) throughout your posts to reach more people, and help visitors search for relevant content.

Blogging gives your site a voice, so let your business’ personality shine through. Choose a great image to feature in your post or add a video for extra engagement. Are you ready to get started? Simply create a new post now.If you don't already have a relationship with a managed cybersecurity provider....possibly....but then nobody you call can help you remotely. If they can't help you remotely, then they have to visit you on-site. The lowest per our charge I have seen for a cybersecurity professional is $250/hr. and can easily get to the $400-600/hr. range. Eeesh!

Yes, but the hacker also does not have access. Touché, but how is your business going to run? It will be as if the hack was successful in shutting down your business anyway.

If you DO have a relationship with a managed cybersecurity provider then DON'T shut down your internet.

Do this instead:

1. Block external access, except for the IP's that your managed cybersecurity provider uses. This can be done at the firewall and now they have visibility into your environment.

2. Block connections between separate physical locations.

3. Block external DNS lookups and force all endpoints to resolve DNS on internal devices to prevent command-and-control over DNS.

Pick a good managed cybersecurity provider. This is something I have a lot of experience with.
