SOCIAL ENGINEERING
PROTECTING YOUR SMALL BUSINESS
CONTENTS
Welcome to the fall edition of Risk & Business Magazine. In
this publication, we have chosen to focus on cybersecurity
since the threat of being hacked has moved much closer to
home and is no longer something only big corporations need
to worry about.
8 YOUR CHECKLIST FOR AVOIDING IT SECURITY BREACHES As we get ready to go to press, reports have been released that
both the Listowel and Wingham hospitals were victims of a
ransomware attack. The hospitals’ ransomware attacks came
just days after similar cyberattacks at the city of Woodstock
and the Woodstock Police Service.
9 THE NEW ECONOMIC MODEL 2.0: PROFIT + PURPOSE
Amy Jo Martin The city of Stratford was hit by a ransomware attack in April
and paid around $75,000 in Bitcoin to restore access to its
information systems.

Return the High-Five
Some reports say that data is now more valuable than oil,
and whether you or not agree with that statement, there is
no denying that our personal information and that of our
customers is at greater risk than ever before.
With that in mind, we have tried to provide you with
information to help you understand how and where you
may be vulnerable to attack. We encourage you to reach
out to your insurance provider and look at what kind of
cybercoverage your policy provides. We are also happy
to provide a no-obligation review and audit of your risk
management program.
