The Unwelcome Program — Malicious Software and What to Do About It

Malicious software for people who aren't analysts: what it actually is, how it ordinarily arrives, what it does to an organisation, the four habits that keep most of it out, and exactly what to do in the first ten minutes when you think you have it.

What you'll learn

• Define malicious software plainly without mystique, expect quiet rather than drama, and understand the commercial motive that predicts its behaviour better than malice does.
• Name the four ordinary doors — what you open, what you download, what you plug in, and what nobody knew was open — and apply a habit to each that a busy person can actually keep.
• Describe the four effects by what they do to an organisation, treat ransomware as an operations problem, and ask the four questions about updates, protective software, accounts, and backups.
• Act correctly in the first ten minutes — stop, disconnect, leave it on, tell somebody fast and honestly — and never investigate it, never forward it, never keep it.
