The story
🎵 Hackers are coming to town… and they’re not bringing presents 🎅
Is your company playing Secret Santa with cybercriminals this holiday season? \(Plot twist: they’re definitely on the naughty list\)
Look, I get it – you’re busy wrapping up Q4, planning the office party, and trying to figure out who keeps stealing Karen’s yogurt from the break room fridge. But while you’re distracted with all that holiday chaos, cyber grinches are working overtime.
Fun fact: Ransomware attacks spike by 30% during the holidays. Yeah, not the kind of holiday bonus anyone wants.
And here’s the kicker – your IT team is probably running on candy canes and skeleton crews right now. Meanwhile, Bob from accounting is too busy online shopping to notice that “urgent invoice” email isn’t really from the CEO.
But hey, don’t chuck your laptop out the window just yet! Here’s your holiday security checklist:
• Actually update those annoying system updates \(yes, all of them\)
• Back up your data like you back up at the dessert table
• Train your team to spot phishy emails \(pun intended\)
