ETS-CNS Cyber Security Newsletter

We’ve all seen it, and some of us have fallen for it. The message pops up on your computer saying: “Your Computer Is Infected with Malware! Click here to purchase recommended anti-virus." This message is a scam and instead of installing anti-virus software, it installs malicious software onto your computer.

This Cyber Security Newsletter explains ways you can protect your computer and prevent your computer from getting infected.
