Learn what malvertising is and how you can protect your business

Did you know that malvertising is a covert way in which cybercriminals can launch attacks on your business through digital advertising?

This technique involves the insertion of malicious advertisements on trusted websites, which can compromise the security of your system without you even realizing it. Read on to find out more about what malvertising is and how you can effectively protect your company from these attacks.

What is malvertising?

Malvertising consists of inserting advertisements on trusted websites to redirect users to malicious sites or install malware on the computer when clicked on. Some of these ads are so sophisticated that they can infect devices without a direct click, and can even use fileless malware, which is virtually impossible to detect without advanced tools.

Cybercriminals exploit vulnerabilities in browsers and installed add-ons, often using pop-ups with fake surveys or illegitimate software updates to trick users.

The problem with these types of cyberattacks is that they are difficult for a user to identify, even with basic cybersecurity training, and the attack can happen without us hardly noticing. Therefore, simply training your employees will not be enough to avoid them.

How can you protect your company while your employees are surfing the Internet?
  • Antivirus and anti-ransomware

    Install and keep the antivirus up to date. Add an extra layer with anti-ransomware to block threats that can hijack your data and business operations in exchange for money.

  • Updating software and plug-ins from official websites

    Keep all programs, plugins and add-ons up to date to close security loopholes that attackers can exploit.
