24/7 Security Services

In an increasingly sophisticated and digitised business environment, more organisations are at risk of suffering losses due to criminal activity.

24/7 Drone Force is powered by 24/7 Security Services.

While kidnapping and extortion cases are on the rise, a new emerging trend sees criminals preying on families of missing persons trying to sell them information that turns out to be fake. The statistics show that KZN and Gauteng account for most of the ransom and extortion-related cases in the country.

Client feedback received: "I wish to place on record what incredible assistance we received from one of our 24/7 Security team staff members recently. His name is Tau (Apologies but I didn’t get his surname). Around 22h30 we were alerted by our neighbour that there was a burst pipe on our pavement. As I opened my front door to go and investigate, I met Tau who was just about to knock on our door and alert us. As this stage the water was about to flood my house, both at our entrance as well as in our kitchen. With Tau’s assistance and that of my neighbours and staff member, we were able to divert the water away from our property. Tau dug a trench to re-direct the water away from my house, he went and collected bricks to help me build a barrier to alter the flow path of the water and he assisted me with trying to turn off the water in our road. He had also made contact with JHB Water and alerted them to the problem. (Sadly, and frustratingly, they only really responded when I contacted them). Tau continued to work with us (and my neighbours) until close to 1 in the morning, when JHB Water finally arrived at 01h00 to turn off the water. Tau’s assistance, and calm demeanour, was hugely appreciated. He went beyond that what one would expect from a member of the security team. He is a huge asset to the security company as well as our estate and he needs to be recognised and applauded for his exceptionally professional assistance." #team247 #proudly247 #security #safety #247security #247securityservices 🇿🇦

OCTOBER IS CYBER SECURITY MONTH Cyber security is the practice of protecting systems, networks, and programs from digital attacks. These cyber-attacks are usually aimed at accessing, changing, or destroying sensitive information, extorting money from users or interrupting normal online processes. Keep software up to date: Installing software updates for your operating system and programs is critical. - Always install the latest security updates for your devices. - Turn on Automatic Updates for your operating system. - Use web browsers that receive frequent, automatic security updates. - Make sure to keep browser plug-ins up to date. Avoid phishing scams: Phishing scams are a constant threat - using various social engineering ploys, cyber-criminals will attempt to trick you into divulging personal information such as your login IDs and passwords, banking or credit card information. Phishing scams can be carried out by phone, text, or social networking sites - but most commonly by email. Be suspicious of any official-looking email message or phone call that asks for personal or financial information. Practice good password management: We all have many passwords to manage - and it's easy to take short-cuts, like reusing the same password. Create strong passwords or opt for a password manager can help you to maintain strong, unique passwords for all of your accounts. Be careful what you click: Avoid visiting unknown websites or downloading software from untrusted sources. These sites often host malware that will automatically install and compromise your computer. If attachments or links in the email are unexpected or suspicious for any reason, don't click on them. Never leave devices unattended: The physical security of your devices is just as important as their technical security. If you need to leave your laptop, phone, or tablet for any length of time - lock it so no one else can use it. If you keep protected data on a flash drive or external hard drive, make sure they are encrypted and password protected. Use mobile devices safely: Considering how much we rely on our mobile devices and how susceptible they are to attack, you'll want to make sure you are protected. - Lock your device with a PIN or password - and never leave it unprotected in public - Only install apps from trusted sources - Keep the device's operating system up to date - Avoid transmitting or storing personal information on the device - Don't click on links or attachments from unsolicited emails or texts #CyberSecurity #team247 #proudly247 #security #safety #247security #247securityservices

Impersonation fraud, also known as identity theft, has surged by 337% over the past year, reaching its highest level as criminals increasingly open or take over accounts using stolen identities.
