We Partner With You

Most cyberattacks are crimes of opportunity, randomly seeking to exploit weak IT environments—and they are on the rise. An efficient and effective response is essential, requiring a strategic reaction to a network security breach, exploit, or cyberattack.

Many cybersecurity companies focus on software and provide services as an add-on. Blue Team Alpha is different. We make a commitment to our clients to get them back up and running as quickly as possible. Our team runs toward the fire, ensuring you get the immediate response needed for survival.

5 Dos and Don’ts if You’ve Been Hit with Ransomware

Walking in to a ransomware splash screen on your organizations’ computers can be terrifying; and trust us, ransomware was designed to terrify. Often times untraceable bitcoin payments are involved (and sometimes even extortion demands) in order to gain access to your computer, encrypted files, or network. Ransomware is currently considered by many reports as one of the top cybersecurity threats, and for good reason. Not only is data theft a profitable industry, costing companies on average $761,106 per payout, but attackers have taken things a step further by publicly disclosing sensitive data on leak sites. If you discover ransomware in your system, the most important thing to do first is not to panic.

Our Customers Trust Us for Protection
"We were victims of a ransomware attack. Every Windows machine connected to our network, including desktops, laptops, and servers, was encrypted. Only the laptops we took home at night, including my own, were not encrypted. Our business was totally down. We were attacked on Friday morning. We brought Blue Team Alpha on board on Saturday morning. All of us worked about 20 hours a day. The Blue Team Alpha crew worked in shifts, so there was always someone there to help us, around the clock, who knew what was going on. By Monday evening we had our business systems back up."
