MOVEit flaw – Excellent cyber advice from the BBC

This is a follow-up article to the one I posted about the compromise of MOVEit software:

MOVEit secure file transfer compromised.

I could paraphrase the following article – it covers many of the points I have written about here on Smart Thinking before – but my advice is take a couple of minutes and read Joe Tidy’s article. It has advice for both organisations and individuals, who are caught up in a cyber attack.

Once you have read it – we can help with that…

I have an article coming out on CyberAwake tomorrow discussing some steps to take to try and limit any information theft if your cyber security is breached.
