Is Your Business Covered By Cyber Liability Insurance?

Within the past couple of weeks, we were reminded that we are always open to risks of privacy invasion when technology is concerned. Of course, we are talking about the latest WhatsApp Hacking case. Our phones are one of the personal belongings that we never leave the house without, and we forget that while they are wonderful for providing us with so much access to the world, right at our fingertips, they are also vulnerable to major scams and hacks.

What Happened With WhatsApp?

WhatsApp, if you didn’t already know, is a global messaging App available to Apple and Android mobile phones, that is installed on 1.5 billion devices across the world. Just last week, attackers had exploited the system by installing spyware on to several users devices. This spyware had reportedly gained the attackers complete access to all content on the victims’ phones; including personal and corporate information, emails, contact details, camera, microphone, and the location of the owner of that particular handset.

Once WhatsApp had become aware of what was happening, they quickly urged all of their users to update their app as quickly as possible and to keep everything up to date.

Why Does This Concern My Business?

You may be wondering why exactly we are informing you about the latest technology attack, however, we are for very good reason.
