Quick hurricane tips from some guys who care about your IT needs:

1. BACK UP your documents and pics onto a USB drive that you can take with you.
2. SHUTDOWN and unplug your computer. Or at least make sure it's on a functioning surge suppressor. (I swear, the amount of times I see computers plugged into a dead battery backup unit, you'd think people didn't know they go bad after 3 years.)
3. ELEVATE your computer off of on the floor along with it's accessories and cabling.
4. REDIRECT your VoIP service provided through us so we can forward calls to another number, like your cell phone, if your internet or power is out.
5. WRITE down our contact info and that of your family and friends in case your Rolodex blows away too.
6. CALL US if your building blows away and you need a temporary place to work after the storm. We've got connections

This is the news we are receiving more and more often. These attacks were coordinated, although the towns impacted have not figured out where the source was. Usually, ransomware attacks originate via an attachment to an email. Employees are generally the weakest link in an organization's security, with 1 in 20 anticipated to fall victim to email phishing scams and many unwittingly opening the attachments to emails that launch ransomware attacks within their networks. Is your business ready? Are your employees trained and hyper aware? Do you have email filters in place? Is your data backed up offsite? Do you have complete system backups that can be restored or even launched virtually in case of failure or corruption? Do you have ransomware protections on your computers and servers and firewalls set up that can isolate any suspicious behavior and remediate damage caused by it? Talk with the IT Guys concerning your answers to these questions. Never think you're too small to be a target of ransomware!

Investigators haven't identified who or what is behind the attack that took systems offline, but the Texas Department of Information Resources says the evidence points to "one single threat actor."
