Protect Your Company from Viruses and Malware

ARE YOU SAFE FROM VIRUSES OR MALWARE?

In an industry that evolves as rapidly as technology, it’s crucial that you maintain pace with modern demands. The hardware and software you work with might have new tools that are more sophisticated than past models, but that also means the threats you face are also improving. That’s why a solid antivirus and malware protection platform is so important for every company. It only takes one mistake to disrupt your workflow, harm your company’s data, and potentially threaten your future. With Alura by your side, you won’t have to worry about that mistake being made.

Every year, small businesses and large corporations alike have to close their doors because of a cyberattack they weren’t prepared for. It’s one thing not to know every threat that’s out there; it’s an altogether more dangerous thing not to take the time to bolster your network’s security. Whether it’s by repelling viruses, malware, or phishing attacks, or helping you recover your data through a comprehensive backup and disaster recovery solution, at Alura our team is here to make sure your network is safe and sound.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN VIRUSES AND MALWARE?

Although viruses and malware are frequently lumped together, the two have some differences that are worth exploring further.

VIRUSES

Viruses spread by attaching themselves to files and programs that are otherwise legitimate and can be easily spread through infected websites, flash drives, and messages in your inbox. Once you open the infected file or application, a virus can disable your system, delete or encrypt files, and more.

MALWARE

If you’ve ever encountered any type of malicious software, you’ve encountered malware. Common objectives of malware include stealing financial information, personal data, and assuming control of your network to extract targeted information.
