In our last post, we delved into the rising threat of ransomware attacks on automotive dealerships and why they’re prime targets for cybercriminals. Let’s take that discussion a step further by focusing on how dealerships can take a proactive approach to cybersecurity to prevent costly attacks.
Beyond ransom payments, dealerships face financial losses from operational downtime, lost sales opportunities, and damage to their brand reputation. And when every minute of downtime can lead to lost revenue, the time to act is before an attack happens.
While no system is entirely foolproof, the goal is to minimize risk as much as possible. This means having the right measures in place, including continuous monitoring, backup solutions, and employee training.
