The European Cyber Security Month (ECSM) is the European Union's annual campaign, organized by the European cyber security agency ENISA and the European Commission, which provides for the entire month of OCTOBER, a variety of activities, conferences, conventions and events in all EU member countries designed to promote greater awareness and knowledge among citizens about cyber threats, methods to counter them, and provide up-to-date information on cyber protection and cybersecurity.
In this year's campaign, the goal remains, as usual, to spread the knowledge and tools needed to protect ourselves from cyber criminals.
Cyber criminals nowadays employ increasingly sophisticated and clever tactics using social engineering, to breach our security defenses and take possession of our data. Sometimes some business necessities and the haste to achieve goals, can distract from what has become a global and unavoidable issue today: CYBERSECURITY.
The European Cybersecurity Month is coordinated by ENISA - European Union Agency for Cybersecurity - and the European Commission together with a number of organizations, universities and research centers across Europe.
TG Soft Cyber Security Specialist, a CLUSIT associate, is also actively participating in the ECSM, promoting cyber security awareness and diffusion, as well as providing concrete tools to protect against cyber scams, thanks to 100% Italian proprietary technologies that can counter cyber attacks.
To prevent these attacks, you should implement some common sense practices, but in case of a ransomware attack, it is critical to defend yourself with concrete tools designed to mitigate these attacks.
TG Soft Cyber Security Specialist will support the European Cyber Security Month ECSM 2024 with some activities.

More and more users need technologies to work and access data and programs remotely, thanks also to the spread of CLOUD systems and SMARTWORKING. These needs expose to cyber attacks by CyberCriminals.
Indeed, attacks continue via remote desktop (RDP) to PCs/Servers spreading Ransomware/CryptoMalware, i.e., malware that encrypts files for ransom.
Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a remote management protocol, developed by Microsoft and included in all Windows® Operating Systems, used for remote PC/Server management. If it's not configured properly, can be exploited in cyber attacks.
The analysis carried out by TG Soft's C.R.A.M., revealed that in these types of attacks, gross errors are often made in the configuration of the affected machines, thus helping the success of the attack. We invite you to follow our technical experts' advice=> Ransomware attacks with RDP access breaches continue.
