12 Actions U.S. Businesses Should Start Today to Tighten Security
FBI Warns of Cyber-Terrorism Threat
CHICAGO, September 24, 2001—Telenisus Corporation, in response to FBI warnings of cyber terrorism, has issued security recommendations and guidelines for U.S. businesses, including 12 immediate actions that companies can take to help protect themselves.
"We were all shocked and hurt to various degrees by the September 11 terrorist acts. We obviously cannot do anything to reverse what happened, but in some small way perhaps Telenisus can help others avoid being affected by another malicious event--cyber terrorism," said Gordon Reichard Jr., Telenisus president and chief executive officer. "The FBI has issued multiple advisories warning of the increased likelihood of computer attacks, and we hope that our recommendations and guidance will drastically improve the security preparedness of many U.S. businesses."
Telenisus, a managed Internet infrastructure service provider specializing in information security, is making available two documents. The first, "Don’t Wait: 12 Actions You Should Start Today To Tighten Business Security," (below) is a listing of 12 specific actions companies can begin today to make sure their information and systems are secured.
