Types Of Cybersecurity Threats To Seattle Businesses

There are many different types of cybersecurity threats out there, each doing significant amounts of damage to your Seattle business. Understanding the types of security threats can help you better understand how your Seattle company may be at risk. Some potential cybersecurity threats include:

  • Malware: A widespread type of attack includes ransomware, spyware, command & control, and more. Malware is a code added to a vulnerable computer network without the computer user's knowledge. It can spread across a network, causing harm while remaining undetectable.
  • Ransomware - A form of malware that encrypts a user's data unless they pay a ransom.
  • SQL Injection - A type of attack in which hackers insert malicious code to manipulate back-end databases, allowing them to access information and data not intended for public view, including personal details or sensitive company information.
  • DDoS Attack: This type of attack looks to take down a whole network or service by overwhelming the systems with traffic or data. When systems are overwhelmed, regular users are no longer able to use their systems. Typically DDoS attacks target high-profile organizations, including government entities, global banks, commerce, and more.
  • Trojan Horses - A malicious software program that poses as something useful. Typically spread when unknowing victims think they are performing routine software tasks. Some of the most dangerous types of malware are designed to steal financial information.

Our cyber security solutions implement a complete cybersecurity program that helps to mitigate risk and ensure protection from potential cyberattacks.
