Tip: October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month

5 Ways to Protect Your Small Business From Corporate Account Takeover

Cybercriminals are targeting small businesses with increasingly sophisticated attacks. They use spoofed emails--malicious software spread through infected attachments and online social networks--to obtain login credentials to business accounts, transfer funds from the accounts, and steal private information, referred to as corporate account takeover. Combating account takeover is a shared responsibility between businesses and financial institutions. In recognition of National Cyber Security Awareness Month, Four Corners Community Bank offers these tips to help prevent account takeover:

Educate your employees. You and your employees are the first line of defense against corporate account takeover. A strong security program paired with employee education about the warning signs, safe practices, and responses to a suspected takeover are essential to protecting your company and customers.

Protect your online environment. It is important to protect your cyber environment just as you would your cash and physical location. Do not use unprotected internet connections. Encrypt sensitive data and keep updated virus protections on your computer. Use complex passwords and change them periodically.

Partner with your bank to prevent unauthorized transactions. Talk to FCCB about programs that safeguard you from unauthorized transactions. Positive Pay and other services offer call backs, device authentication, multi-person approval processes, and batch limits help protect you from fraud.

Pay attention to suspicious activity and react quickly. Look out for unexplained account or network activity, pop-ups, and suspicious emails. If detected, immediately contact your financial institution, stop all online activity, and remove any systems that may have been compromised. Keep records of what happened.

Understand your responsibilities and liabilities. The account agreement with your bank will detail what commercially reasonable security measures are required in your business. It is critical that you understand and implement the security safeguards in the agreement. If you don't, you could be liable for losses resulting from a takeover. Talk to your banker if you have any questions about your responsibilities.
