San Jose, Calif. (Nov. 4, 2024) – As National Cybersecurity Awareness Month comes to a close, ZAG Technical Services BB #:365534 has a chilling reminder for businesses everywhere: There’s nothing scarier than a cyber attack during your busiest season.
With peak harvests and holiday sales just around the corner, it’s critical for businesses to identify and close vulnerabilities that could leave them exposed.
If you missed ZAG’s experts at the Global Produce and Floral Show earlier this month, there’s still time to take action. ZAG is offering comprehensive cybersecurity assessments to help companies uncover hidden risks in their systems and plan smarter for 2025.
“Cyber attacks can take days, weeks or months to recover from, and may even come with a hefty ransom without the guarantee of restored access,” said Thuan Ngo, Vice President of ZAG Technical Services. “That kind of downtime could spell disaster, especially during critical operational windows like peak harvest season.”
Prepare for the Unexpected: Your Cybersecurity Checklist
To help businesses safeguard their operations, ZAG has released a free downloadable cybersecurity checklist. This resource includes essential steps companies can take to minimize risks and prepare for faster recovery in case of an incident. Some key recommendations include:
- Deploy a next-generation antivirus and anti-malware solution
- Engage in regular employee education and phishing simulation training
- Use system snapshots for predictable, streamlined recovery
Businesses can access the full checklist and take the first step toward minimizing cybersecurity risks today.
“Now is a great time for businesses to reflect on their cybersecurity practices,” added Ngo. “Whether you’re worried about ransomware attacks, phishing scams, or system vulnerabilities, we want to empower companies to take proactive measures and prevent downtime before it strikes.
