BBB Tip: How To Avoid Cyberattacks In An Age Of Digital Warfare
Salt Lake City, UT — News agencies have begun reporting that Ukraine has been targeted by a third wave of “sophisticated” cyberattacks, which temporarily shut down Ukrainian banks, military, government, and other websites.
“Cyberattacks are usually aimed at accessing, changing or destroying personal information, extorting money from individuals or interrupting normal business processes,” said Jane Rupp, President and CEO of BBB.
Though there is no official blame, Russia is believed to be the source of the attack. The country is no stranger to cyber warfare, with some of the largest cyberattacks against the United States in the last two years associated with Russian hackers. Concern is being expressed about the likelihood of an attack against the U.S. and other countries, prompting Better Business Bureau to share tips for keeping your information and personal devices safe.
“Cyber criminals take over thousands of PCs and use them to perpetrate distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks,” Rupp said. The Ukrainian breaches were DDoS, interrupting internet connectivity and causing outages. Rupp continued, “It’s even more reason to keep your computer secure.”
“Cyberattacks are the 21st century way to engage in warfare without needing armies on the ground or soldiers in the streets. Even if you’re far away from the armed conflict, new technological advancements have made very few of us exempt from cyberattacks,” said Rupp.
If you think you’ve been hacked, follow the FTC’s steps to secure your information after personal identifying information has been compromised. You can also report scams to BBB Scam Tracker to help warn others and provide additional information that may be useful to law enforcement.
