Every business fears cyberattacks. With so much of our modern world going online, a cyberattack has gone from a nuisance to a massive problem. You need to understand what goes into one—and how it can affect you.

Phishing is one of the most common cyberattacks you’ll encounter. It’s a simple concept: someone pretends to be someone they’re not by spoofing a website or an email. They ask for personal information, then steal that information.

There’s a difference between home- and commercial-grade tools. It’s essentially common sense that the drill you use to put up the curtains in your house won’t stand up to being thrown in and out of toolboxes and used eight hours a day on a job site.

Cybersecurity used to be something of an afterthought. But in today’s hyper-connected world, it’s an everyday concern. The average person probably knows about ransomware, phishing, and social engineering.
