People refer to bad software on their devices as ‘having a virus’, actually, it’s probably not one.
Did you know that Viruses actually make up less than 10% of cyber-attacks!
That thing you think is a virus, is actually malware and there are loads of different kinds of malware out there each causing different kinds of chaos.
In the spirit of ‘know your enemy’, we have created a guide for you to help understand the different kinds of malware/viruses.
Our team at Breathe are a Managed IT Services provider that have specialist security skillsets. We work with Small to Medium Businesses, Mid-Market Businesses as well as Schools and we thought this guide would be useful. There is no cost or catch, just doing our bit to keep local businesses and schools informed and hopefully able to recognise Cyber Crime when you see it!

We also have some other interesting resources, like videos from the National Cyber Security Centre on real life incidents and schools being caught out. Have a look, as it will help you identify this kind of activity!
