Los Angeles IT Leader Frontline Warns Area Businesses of Two New Windows Attacks
Microsoft has issued a new patch addressing two critical VBScript vulnerabilities, but some Greater Los Angeles companies have already succumbed to exploits, Frontline reports
LOS ANGELES – May 10, 2018 /MarketersMedia/ —
A brand-new patch from Microsoft might have come a bit late for some Los Angeles businesses, but information technology specialist Frontline is ready to help, whatever the situation. Security experts report that hackers are already exploiting two VBScript engine vulnerabilities addressed in the latest “Patch Tuesday” update for Windows. As a leader at IT Security for businesses in Los Angeles, Frontline ensures that client companies never succumb to the kinds of problems some in Los Angeles are now facing.
According to Qihoo 360 Core Security researchers, the two new “global scale” attacks can provide hackers with complete control over targeted Windows systems. Experts expect one of the bugs to “become one of the most exploited in the near future,” meaning that still-vulnerable Los Angeles companies which have so far escaped harm could still come under fire.
Offering a full range of top-quality Managed IT Services in Los Angeles, Frontline protects existing clients from such problems and helps new ones shore up their defenses. Working with a leader like Frontline is the best way for small and medium businesses to not only stay safe from cyber-criminals, but also extract the greatest possible value from information technology in general.
“The Internet has never been more hostile, as too many businesses in Los Angeles are right now finding out,” said Frontline CEO Shane Purcell. “These latest vulnerabilities prove once again that staying on top of IT security needs to be a top priority for every business. Even in cases, like this one, where an official patch becomes available only well after the attacks begin, there are always ways of staying safe from hackers. Whether by protecting our clients from threats like these or helping them make the most of information technology with our managed services, we here at Frontline are always proud to lend a hand.”
