Passguard interviewed by Algemeen Dagblad
Passguard founders Tom and Sanno spoke with Algemeen Dagblad about the dangers of infostealers, following the earlier report on RTL Nieuws.
Following the report on RTL Nieuws, Algemeen Dagblad reached out to Passguard for an interview with our founders, Tom and Sanno, about the dangers of infostealers.
What are infostealers?
In the interview, Tom explains what infostealers are:
"An infostealer specialises in extracting as much information as possible from a device as quickly and discreetly as possible."
He also highlights the often underestimated risks for organisations:
"What we see is that many people accidentally introduce an infostealer through their personal devices or suppliers' laptops. These devices are then used to log into corporate environments, and the login credentials are traded," Tom explains.
What should you do if you're infected?
And what if you’re dealing with an infection? Sanno emphasises the importance of swift action:
"The first thing you need to do is clean your device. Then, immediately reset all your accounts, starting with your email."
The video was not only published on AD.nl but also shared across regional news websites like Eindhovens Dagblad, Tubantia, De Stentor, De Gelderlander, BN De Stem and PZC., thanks to DPG Media.
