 Client Security Advisory: Stay Vigilant Against Potential Threats

by: Align

In our continuous efforts to safeguard your business from security threats, we want to remind you to be cautious when encountering unexpected communications from cybercriminals posing as vendors like Microsoft, QuickBooks, or any other service provider. We have seen an increased number of attacks targeting the industry, making it more important than ever to stay vigilant.

What to Watch For:

  • Emails requesting sensitive information or urgent action
  • Phone calls asking for account details or access to your systems
  • Web pop-ups prompting you to download software or enter login credentials

Align Recommendations:

  • Before responding to or interacting with any such communications, please reach out to our support team for verification. We are here to help you confirm the legitimacy of these messages and ensure your business stays secure.
  • Report Suspicious Activity: If you suspect any unusual communications please report it to our IT support team immediately.
