How to protect against ransomware attacks Regardless of your industry, any serious minded company should have a proper cybersecurity plan and remediation strategy to protect against and handle ransomware attacks. As most ransomware attacks infect and encrypt files, backing up data may seem like a good starting point to minimise the impact of an attack. However, be aware that more advanced types of ransomware can also encrypt backup files, so you won’t be able to restore these versions on to your computers. You should also keep your company’s operating system up to date and install antivirus and whitelisting software on all computers. Antivirus software will detect malware and ransomware threats as they arrive, while whitelisting software will prevent unauthorised software from opening. These software and computer updates will help protect your company from a wide range of cyber threats. However, antivirus software can only go so far in protecting against cyber-attacks. In fa...

Wealth Mindset #1 Rich people associate with positive, successful people. Poor people associate with negative or unsuccessful people. Successful people look at other successful people as a means to motivate themselves. They see other successful people as models to learn from. They say to themselves, “If they can do it, I can do it. Another important observation of mine is this. Rich people are grateful that others have succeeded before them so that they now have a blueprint to follow that will make it easier to attain their own success. Contrary to the rich, when poor people hear about other people’s success, they often judge them, criticize them, mock them, and try to pull them down to their own level. How many of you know people like this? How many of you know family members like this? The question is, how can you possibly learn from or be inspired by someone you put down? Yes I know, it’s much more difficult to be positive and conscious around people and circumstances that ...

This is the best answer I ever received to 'Tell me about yourself'—after 20 years of interviewing Gary Burnison, Contributor  |  @gary_burnison Getty Images | Aleksandar Georgiev "Tell me about yourself" is a question you're certain to be asked at any  job interview . As the CEO of the  world's largest executive search firm , I have conducted thousands of interviews over the past 20 years. The best — and most memorable — answer I have ever received to that question was: "I've climbed the highest mountains on every continent, including Everest." Of course, anyone who is unimpressed by the person who conquered the "Seven Summits" must have foolishly high standards. But the fact that this candidate achieved such an impressive accomplishment wasn't the reason she stood out from all the rest. Predictors of success Too many people respond to "Tell me about yourself" by essentially giving a re...
