Make sure your Google Chrome patching is up to date.
Google has just released a patch to fix a flaw in Chrome that was being actively exploited by threat actors. The attack is directed at the WebRTC system – which is a component used in web based comms, so avoid those until you have run the patches. (This is a situation where Octagon’s RMM tools would a benefit to you, as with it you could check that everyone has Google Chrome patched.)

Google is claiming they have seen examples of exploits in the wild, but for obvious reasons they have not yet released any technical details – that gives you and me a head start to run the patches!
My advice: Either you or your IT support need to check whether these issues impact your systems. You need to have a master document that details your systems, hardware, software, online, networks, back-ups, suppliers etc – so when cyber security (or operational) issues arise you and your support teams can quickly check if you are affected. From there you can take fast, effective action.
