Don’t Let Malware Destroy Your ERP System!
We just got a report that another one of our customers has been affected by malware. In this case it wiped out their ERP server. We are working with them to restore it an get everything up and running again. It is highly likely that this got into their network by an email attachment. This seemed like a good opportunity to remind everyone to be extremely careful with email attachments. Even if it appears to be from someone that you know, email “From” addresses can be forged.
Best practice is to save the attachment to a folder, and run a virus scan before opening or viewing the file.
