Protect Your Data from Cyberattacks

No one is immune to it, no matter how small or large your business is, or whether it’s a personal or work network. Cyberattacks, malware, ransomware, and more can impact your data and work operations, and leave you left to deal with the aftermath of recovering your data or worse - with nothing.

Toyota in 2019, Honda in 2020, Kia in 2021, not to mention the other countless automotive businesses and OEM suppliers around the world that have been affected by such disasters. Hackers know that the automotive industry cannot be disrupted. Don’t allow yourself to remain vulnerable. Protect yourself and your business with these best practices:

  • Back up your data to a safe external hard drive, and get rid of old unnecessary backups.

  • Use antivirus software:

    • We recommend using ESET.com. Once ESET is installed, we can assist you in configuring it to allow AutoFluent® to work seamlessly with it.

  • Get a trusted professional network technician to set up your network.

  • Update your software applications and keep them up to date.

  • Correctly retire your old computers and devices.

  • Do not store passwords on your devices.

  • Do not provide administrator access to unnecessary individuals.

  • Turn off your computer at day’s end.

AutoFluent® cloud customers happily enjoy automatic daily backups to our secure cloud. Not on the cloud yet? When performing manual backups, check “Backup to Web” when backing up your AutoFluent® data.
