With the rapid development in the field of artificial intelligence, the field of IT security is facing great challenges: Like any new technology, artificial intelligence and so-called machine learning can be abused by criminals. What this means for the fight against phishing, ransomware and spam, and how you can already protect yourself against them, we explain in this blog article.
Criminals are always finding new ways to distribute malware, and the battle against attacks from the internet is continuously fought. Sometimes the good guys win, but no sooner is one threat defused than the next one pops up. Not only that: ransomware attacks are increasing dramatically. In the current case, the attacks are using XLL files, which are used to install malware on the victims’ computers. What XLL files are, why they are so dangerous and how NoSpamProxy protects you from this threat, you will learn in this blog article.
Since this week, we have been noticing a new wave of attacks with RTF documents, where spammers use various “file type evasion tricks”.
Fokus MSP will distribute the entire NoSpamProxy service portfolio, focusing primarily on the cloud offering as well as on system houses and other resellers offering managed services.

Encrypting emails is the best way to protect your company’s communications and keep sensitive data from being illegally accessed. Many companies have understood this and therefore use encryption solutions. But compliance-based requirements and legal requirements such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) also contribute to the spread of email encryption solutions: Since 25 May 2018, the GDPR obliges companies to sign and encrypt emails that contain personal data and to perform transport encryption.
Are we really enjoying life, thanks to technology, or are we more under stress? We don’t go online anymore, we are always online. Therefore, there are many areas where we need to pay more attention. The number of computers in our lives is constantly increasing: PCs, smartphones, tablets and “smart” devices such as TVs, music systems, thermostats and refrigerators that collect more and more data about us and our preferences. Many think “I have nothing to hide”. But this is a misconception. It’s amazing what can be made of even the most innocuous data. And who knows what information about us could suddenly be dangerous in 20 or 30 years?
