October is Cyber Awareness Month! 🔐 Let's strengthen our digital defenses together. 🛡️ Want to protect your business from cyber threats? 🛡️ Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency recommends these 4 essential steps: 1) Teach Employees to Avoid Phishing Phishing happens when criminals trick employees into opening malicious attachments or sharing personal info. Implement training to teach employees how to identify and report suspicious activity. 2) Require Strong Passwords This is one of the easiest ways to protect your business from criminals who might otherwise access your accounts by guessing or using automated hacking programs.  3) Require Multifactor Authentication Use more than a password when signing into accounts—such as a texted code, authenticator app or biometrics—to make them much safer than a password alone! MFA protects accounts by requiring additional authentication to prevent access by others.  4) Update Business Software Defects in software, routers, VPNs, and apps can give criminals an opening to your accounts. Software manufacturers publish patches, but you must install them to be protected! Don't use outdated software. Keep business software up to date.  #thecoverageyouneed #theserviceyoudeserve

The devastating hurricanes we've witnessed recently serve as a tragic reminder that flood insurance is a crucial but often overlooked protection.

An easy way to prevent this is to use multi-factor authentication (MFA) on Facebook and every other social media platform and website that offers this level of security.

Is Your Homeowners Insurance Up-to-Date? Time for an Audit! Are you confident that your homeowners insurance policy adequately protects your home and belongings? It's a common misconception that insurance policies remain unchanged once purchased. In reality, your needs can evolve over time due to factors like home renovations, valuable additions, or changes in your lifestyle. How to Conduct an Insurance Audit: - Gather Your Policy: Review your current homeowners insurance policy to understand your coverage limits, deductibles, and exclusions. - Assess Your Needs: Consider any significant changes to your home, possessions, or lifestyle that may impact your insurance requirements. - Evaluate Your Coverage: Compare your current coverage to your assessed needs. Are your limits sufficient? Are there any gaps in your protection? - Call Us: Discuss your findings with your Hilb Group agent. We can help you determine if you need to adjust your coverage or explore alternative options. By conducting a regular insurance audit, you can ensure that your homeowners insurance policy remains aligned with your evolving needs and provides the protection you deserve. #thecoverageyouneed #theserviceyoudeserve
