national cybersecurity awareness month

Apparently it is “National Cybersecurity Awareness Month” in the US.

Computer crime is rampant and quite profitable. Websites have long been defaced for fun or viruses and worms released to cause disruptions.  Now there’s an incentive for criminals to avoid detection, to add your machines to a botnet for hire, or hide spam and ad links in your Wordpress blog.

This is why it’s super critical to us as at AnyHosting to focus on security, and follow best practices like secure backups, regular audits, intrusion detection, automatic updates, etc.
