We Got Hacked. Now What?
 

Are you facing the aftermath of a malware or ransomware attack?
 

For Business Owners Who Think, “It Can’t Happen To Me.”
 

Have you ever considered the destructive effects of even the slightest data breach or hacking incident involving your business? Such incidents can pose a host of far-ranging operational, reputational, and financial consequences that can heavily impact your business adversely. This includes effects such as:
 

• Losses in sales

• Lost clients

• Data privacy breaches

• Identity theft

• Potential lawsuits

• Regulatory fines

• Remediation costs
   

Related costs could mount up and could quickly get out of hand, especially for those that do not have the resources to employ an in-house IT or network security department.
 

As a matter of fact, it’s the small and medium-sized businesses who end up falling behind industry-standard security practices that expose them to these risks. This is where we come in. Midwest Networking Services will take care of not just your IT maintenance but also your network security and backup strategy.
 

I Got Hacked. What Do I Do Now?
 

It’s time to get a professional on your side to deal with the mess and set up your IT systems for success in cybersecurity. A trustworthy, reputable, and secure managed service provider takes proactive steps to implement security measures by deploying anti-virus, anti-malware, and anti-spyware solutions on your technology infrastructure – from your network to your servers, workstations, and mobile devices.
 

IT managed service providers like Midwest can keep an eye on the security of your network remotely, allowing them to nip any potential security threats in the bud before they enter your infrastructure. Choosing the right one will help your business address your immediate and overall security concerns and data backup strategy as well as your business continuity plan.
 

Is My Business At Risk?
 

Yes, yes, and yes. In fact, small and medium-sized businesses not just in St. Louis and the Midwest, but all over the world are under threat of security incidents involving hacking or data theft. They are ideal targets for hackers – many hackers would rather breach a small business’ assets than a multinational conglomerate.
 

The reason for this is simple. Many small and medium-sized businesses are unlikely to invest as much time and effort in securing their intellectual property, network security, and ensuring data compliance as they would in generating revenue and maintaining day-to-day operations. This leaves them open to potential security incidents.​
