Technology News: Scams and Google Forms
You may have used Google Forms in the workplace, or even in your personal life — it is a fantastic tool for gathering information and organising a large group of people. Unfortunately, as a free and user-friendly resource, Google Forms has also been increasingly coopted by hackers in order to trick victims into submitting payment information or log-ins. Typically, a fraudulent but official-looking form will be sent via a phishing email to unsuspecting recipients.
Cybersecurity and Training
Ensuring that your staff are properly trained and confident in cybersecurity best practices will empower them to be the first line of defence for your business. At Lucid Technology Solutions, we offer a range of Security Awareness Training options to suit your business needs. We can help to minimise the risk of an employee accidentally sharing sensitive information, compromising security, or losing control of their email account to hackers.
