How To Choose Your VPN To Boost Protection Against Cyberattacks
Posted by Norma Stratton on
Public networks expose your business to security threats. Switching to a VPN can greatly help in reducing those threats. Many companies rely on public networks for communication and data sharing. It allows them to cut costs and allocate their funds elsewhere. However, it also raises several security issues. For starters, the network provider might be monitoring the activity, which gives them access to customer details, emails, and critical files. As a result, sensitive information can end up in the wrong hands, compromising the organization’s reputation.

Ransomware has become its own highly successful industry, to the tune of $4 billion each year, according to the FBI.
