Guaranteed the first and most important..

Don’t open the strange email

We had random ware about 2 years ago

We hired a company to get us squared away, they said statistically 99.2% of all malware/ransom ware is from a original phishing email that is opened.

Additionally, almost every company had training to not open such emails.

I live in this part of the world and it never fails to piss me off when I see the government suffer a security breach because they were using cybersecurity practices so shitty that I would go to jail if I did them. This is probably some next level stupidity like a publicly accessible AWS bucket that wasn't password protected and the file was named noflylist-master.xls
