As part of our ongoing commitment to your organization’s cybersecurity, Virtua takes responsibility for installing all essential software, including communication tools like Slack and Teams, directly on your staff’s devices. This practice ensures that your team uses only legitimate software, safeguarded against security risks.
A recent report by MalwareBytes, a leading anti-malware and antivirus provider, highlights a significant threat where intruders distribute fake versions of Teams to steal user credentials and other sensitive information. This underscores the importance of having all software installations handled by Virtua, as downloading software independently from the internet poses a substantial security risk.
Please ensure this message is communicated to your entire staff: they should never download Teams, or any organizational software, on their own. This is crucial to maintaining the security integrity of your devices and data.
Should you have any questions or require further clarification, do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your attention to this critical matter.
