Don't Let Cyber Risks Haunt Your Business 👻 🚫 🕸️ October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and this year's message is simple: if you think your business is too small to be a target, think again. In our latest webinar, our cybersecurity partner SpearTip walked through real attacks on businesses like yours: - One phishing email led to a ransomware attack that cost a Wyoming health system an estimated $1.5 million and took about two months to fully recover from. - A hacker hiding in a business partner's inbox walked away with $170,000 and three vehicles from a car dealership. - Organizations often go about 100 days before discovering their email has been compromised. As DJ from SpearTip put it: "No matter your size, you are a target." The good news? Strong fundamentals go a long way. Your best defense is you. In the webinar, you'll learn: 1. What to do in the first 24 hours of a ransomware attack 2. Why standard MFA isn't enough anymore, and what to use instead 3. The simple phone call that would have saved that dealership $170,000 4. How an 831(b) Plan can help you financially prepare for cyber risks traditional insurance may not cover ‼️ SRA clients, stay until the end. SpearTip is offering you a complimentary cybersecurity package that includes a dark web scan, a website vulnerability scan, and an incident response planning workshop.

A ransomware attack cost one business an estimated $1.5 million. Their insurance settlement covered about $1 million of it. That's roughly a $500,000 gap, and it doesn't count the weeks of disruption. It started with a single phishing email at a health system in Wyoming. The ransomware slipped past their security software, spread quietly across every computer and server, and then encrypted everything overnight. What followed: 1. Surgeries and procedures canceled 2. Patients diverted to other facilities across two states 3. About two weeks to bring critical services back online, with staff sleeping on-site 4. Roughly two months to fully restore systems without strong backups Most business owners assume their cyber policy has them covered. But exclusions, limits, and deductibles can leave real gaps when it matters most. In this on-demand Cybersecurity Awareness Month webinar, our cybersecurity partner SpearTip walks through what really happens during an attack and what to do in the first 24 hours. SRA also explains how an 831(b) Plan can help businesses set aside funds for under-insured and uninsured risks, so you're not facing the gap alone. Don't let cyber risks haunt your business.

A hacker never touched this car dealership's systems. They still walked away with $170,000 and three vehicles. Here's how it happened, as shared by our cybersecurity partner SpearTip: A threat actor quietly got into the email inbox of a dealership that was buying cars from another dealer. They read the messages, learned the deal was happening, and created a fake email address posing as the seller. Then they sent one simple message: "We have a new bank account. Please wire the money here instead." The buyer wired $170,000 without picking up the phone to confirm. The seller, believing they'd been paid, released three vehicles to drivers the attacker sent to pick them up. The money was never recovered. Business email compromise is one of the biggest drivers of cyber losses for small and mid-sized businesses, and in some cases it outpaces ransomware. And it often comes down to one missed phone call. In this on-demand webinar, SpearTip's experts explain: 1. How attackers sit undetected in inboxes, sometimes for months 2. Why standard MFA is bypassed every day, and what to use instead 3. The one verification step that would have stopped this attack 4. How an 831(b) Plan can help you financially prepare for the risks traditional insurance may not cover If your business sends or receives wires, this is worth 30 minutes of your time.

If ransomware hit your business tonight, would your team know what to do first? Most business owners don't, and the decisions made in the first 24 hours can shape the entire recovery. SpearTip's incident response team shares the playbook: 1. Stop the spread. Disconnect infected machines from the network, but don't power them off. Responders need what's on them. 2. Call your insurer and responders right away, and follow your insurer's instructions. 3. Preserve the evidence. Save emails, logs, and screenshots. You'd be surprised what ends up mattering. 4. Secure your accounts. Change admin passwords and turn on MFA to prevent reinfection. 5. Protect your customers. Track which data and customers may be affected, and loop in legal counsel. 6. Document everything. Every decision, every finding, every timestamp. Businesses with a written incident response plan recover faster than those without one. In this on-demand Cybersecurity Awareness Month webinar, you'll hear real attack stories, the controls that make the biggest difference, and how an 831(b) Plan can help your business weather the financial side of a cyber event.
