Sinopse

I recently received a scary email involving my PORN BROWSING HABITS!?!?  The email threatened me with everyone in my contacts getting a picture of me along with my browsing habits.  WHAT SHOULD I DO? We break down what these email means and how they can start to generate emails that can be really scary and fool people into paying Bitcoin with these emails. One step in looking at these emails is Have I Been Pwned. This shows you some of the passwords that have been breached. There are 3 layers of defence that youcan use to protect your email. Firstly, a cloud based email system will check for viruses, malware and phishing emails.  This means that dodgy emails don't even get to your network. Secondly, a firewall that also checks for viruses and malware.  A great firewall means that a lot less viruses and malware emails will get into your network. Lastly, make sure you have a decent antivirus system.  We use and recommend Webroot.  We would be protecting thousands of desktops, servers and laptops with Webroot. T
