Am I under attack? Do I need to find an underground bunker? No. It is very normal to see High Risk items when you run the report for the first time – but that doesn’t mean they should be ignored.

These are risks known to KYND (and everyone else) and the “bad guys” could ultimately use these to stop your business from trading. There are many different types of threats within this category, and we are on hand to help.

These aren’t as important as the RED’s – but they certainly need your attention. Think of these as an unlocked back door at your home. You may want to keep it unlocked so the neighbour can come and feed the cat. But on the other hand, you also may want it locked to keep the bad guys away and you weren’t aware the door was open. KYND have knocked on the door – and we are now letting you know so you can decide.

We love seeing green – and we hope you do too! This bucket of risks shows you the domains and services that you are using where KYND has found no current issues. Though, that’s not to say these may not change in the near future. From time to time software, services and anything on the internet will need to be updated for security issues. You may have heard of these as security “Patches” or “Updates”. If you own a smartphone, you will be used to the frequent updates that are needed to the software. These are important to keep the “baddies” at bay and keep your business trading safely, and with new cyber risks coming to the forefront each day – there’s a real reason why you get those frequent updates.

We have searched the Internet to find things that are associated with your Internet addresses i.e. www.example.com – pretty neat huh? KYND will even find where employees have used their individual company email address e.g. John.Doe@example.com to register their own personal websites.

Everything we do (like it or not) is on the Internet and/or the cloud in some manner. Personally, you use the Internet to do your online shopping, register for that new hip gym or to transfer sums of money to your better half – your business is no different right? All that personal information floating around in a non-policed place for all the world to see is a pretty worrying thought – we agree! There is no doubt your business will be using some (if not all) of its services over the internet.

Your service map will really put into perspective just how small the world is! I’m sure you are wondering why if you are small business in the UK – are your services all over the world? And what the heck am I doing in Venezuela?

Examples of your services could be – overseas software suppliers or servers based in locations anywhere in the globe. Many of us are used to storing our pictures and documents in the cloud, somewhere up in the sky beyond the stratosphere. But the physical information has to be stored somewhere – right? Those beloved cat videos and pictures of your nephew picking his nose are sitting in storage somewhere on Earth – and not necessarily your home country.
