Is Your Digital Data Safe from Cyber Attacks?
The best defense against a cyber attack is to have nothing to defend. In other words, if your documents are kept in non-digital eye-readable format, hackers can’t get to it.
Cyber Attacks are occurring in unprecedented numbers and the trend should continue to increase. Read this article on cyber attacks. Ransomware is a real threat to health care organizations, financial institutions, schools, government agencies and other groups. Ransomware is where a hacker gains control of your digital records and make them “inaccessible” by injecting a virus. This essentially shuts down the operation. The hacker demands a payment in order to remove the virus. Some organizations are refusing to make payments and are relying on IT resources to remove the virus; others are relenting and paying the ransom. In some cases even after paying the ransom, the virus is not removed. In any case, being a victim of ransomware is extremely disruptive and expensive.
Many organizations are now creating “eye readable” archival microfilm copies of digital files, either as a back up or as the main storage medium. By having a non-digital back up of records, an organization can mitigate the threat of ransomware.
