Perth, Australia - November 6, 2017 /PressCable/ —

Recent stories about the damaging effects of hacker attacks have caused great concern in the business world. Yet, there are still far too many small business owners who ignore the very real risks that hacking represents to any type of company.

Because of this, entrepreneurs were today advised that they need to take the necessary steps to protect their systems and data from hackers. This is something that all company owners need to be aware of and act on before it is too late.

The warning came from a business coaching specialist who advised that there is plenty of information out there for entrepreneurs to use in their quest to avoid hackers. Founder of YourBusinessCoachingClub, Craig Ridley, pointed out that the advice that is given on this subject varies from time to time, according to the changing risks and known hacker activity.

An example that he gave of this was with the recent advice to avoid overly complex passwords. While it was previously the case that people were told to use complex passwords that are hard to guess, current advice is to use simpler passwords that can be easily remembered without writing them down.

However, this doesn’t negate the need for unique passwords that are difficult for other people to guess. Above all, Mr Ridley pointed out that leaving default passwords such as “password” or “admin” should be avoided at all costs.

He also pointed out that getting a solid, reliable anti-virus program installed is the very first step in protecting a business from hackers. As well as this, any company that handles financial data needs to include some sort of encryption software to keep their information better protected.
