What's Included With Cybersecurity
Think a Computer Is Infected?
Right now:
- Disconnect it from the network or Wi-Fi
- Don’t enter passwords on it
- Call 561-425-6100 or your IT provider
- Note what you saw and when
How We Handle It
- Contain the device to protect the rest of the network
- Investigate what the malware is and what it touched
- Clean or reinstall, depending on severity
- Reset credentials used on the device, from a clean machine
- Check other devices for signs of spread
Keep It From Coming Back
Traditional antivirus misses much of today’s malware. Endpoint detection and response with 24/7 monitoring, web filtering, patching and training stop most infections before they start.
The Technical Side
How an infection is handled:
- Isolation of the device through EDR or by disconnecting it
- Investigation: process, file and network activity reviewed to identify the malware and how it arrived
- Scope check: other devices and accounts reviewed for the same indicators
- Remediation: removal, or a clean reimage when trust in the system cannot be restored
- Credential resets for accounts used on the device, with active sessions revoked
- Prevention: patches, EDR, filtering and training to close the entry point

Virus Security in West Palm Beach: Common Questions
What are signs a computer has malware?
Sudden slowness, pop-ups, unknown programs, browser changes, security tools turned off, or contacts receiving strange messages from you.
What should I do first?
Disconnect the computer from the network or Wi-Fi, don't enter any passwords on it, and contact your IT provider.
Can malware be removed without wiping the computer?
Sometimes. For serious infections, reinstalling is often the safer choice. We recommend the approach based on what we find.
Should passwords be changed after an infection?
Usually, yes, especially for accounts used on the infected computer, from a clean device.
Should we use free antivirus on business computers?
Free consumer antivirus lacks central management, monitoring and response. Business endpoint detection and response watched by a security team provides much stronger protection.
Can a phone get malware?
Yes, though it is less common. Keep phones updated, install apps only from official stores and use company device management for phones that access work data.
