OMA Comp Security Alert. Be Aware!January 5, 2021 By trystanHappy New Year! We hope that 2021 is filled with health, happiness, the end to the pandemic, and for your personal and company data to remain secure. We have had a plethora of calls regarding scammers trying to use OMA Comp and other institutions such as banks and the government to try to get you to reveal information, so that they can steal your identity. If you are unsure who you are speaking with or receive an email link you are not expecting, it is best to hang up and call your contact’s phone number. Be aware that scammers try to rope you in by saying that they are your IT company, your marketing company, your bank, anything they can to gain your trust, so that you give them access to your private data. Providing information can cause you millions of dollars in damages, stolen identity, loss of revenue, credit card fraud, social security breach, and more. We urge you to be aware of these scams. Scammers are on the rise, and many people fall for them. Don’t let it be you.

If you need to send encrypted, confidential, HIPAA compliant, emails or documents, contact OMA Comp to set up a system with password security. You and your organization can learn more by signing up for a security audit class via Zoom or onsite.
Current Preferred Practices for BackupsJanuary 5, 2021 By OMA CompWe recommend the 3-2-1 backup strategy; at least three or four total verifiable copies of your data, two can be local but on different mediums, and two copies off-site. Back-up monitoring and verification is recommended but a disaster recovery must be in place, because you can still get infected, and data recovery is not guaranteed. Data loss is very real. Talk to us about the best approach for your business. Contact OMA Comp IT support for more information.
