🔒 Cyber threats are real — and we experienced it first-hand!
At BIPS, transparency and trust are at the heart of how we work.
Recently, we faced a cyber security breach. The good news? We acted fast and no client data was compromised ✅
But we didn’t stop there. We strengthened our systems, replaced devices, tightened protocols, and invested in IT security training to make sure we’re safer and stronger moving forward.
Here’s what we’ve learned and what we suggest other businesses should consider:
⚡ Secure hosting & reliable email platforms
⚡ Multi-factor authentication
⚡ Regular updates & backups
⚡ Awareness training to spot scams
⚡ Strict internal policies established and adhered to
Cyber breaches are on the rise across Australia & NZ, and unfortunately, similar to how the effects of inefficient processes slow down businesses; weak cyber and security protections can also cost businesses time, money, and trust.
We’ve turned this challenge into an opportunity for business improvement and personal growth, and we’re here to help others do the same💡
