Warnings on Cyber Security After Lubbock Business Hacked

Posted on February 22, 2016 by Dissent

Cyber security experts have issued warnings Monday on internet safety after a Lubbock business was apparently attacked by hackers.

The computer systems at Caprock Business Forms were non-operational Friday, following the attack, which was triggered by a suspicious email opened by an employee, according to staff.

“We’ve got a really good IT guy and our software people have been able to help us through quite a bit of it too,” said Caprock Business Forms personnel manager Jon Jones. “So far, with his help and our software people, we have been able to get everything back. Although we still have one issue right now, … we have not had to pay the ransom.”
