Now it’s not just about how a site looks, but how well it understands and impacts its users, making every online interaction more engaging and meaningful. In 2024, web design trends are evolving to prioritize more immersive and personalized experiences. Keeping the user informed and focused by removing anything that detracts from the message or the desired action is what is driving design.
Phishing emails (hoping you take the bait!) attempt to fool you into visiting a bogus web site to either download viruses like malware or ransomware or reveal sensitive personal information. The perpetrators of phishing scams carefully craft the email and the bogus web site to look like the real thing.
The Data Breach Investigation Report (DBIR) says there was a 13% rise in ransomware attacks year-over-year from 2021. This rise is a greater increase than the previous five years combined. Ransomware is a malware attack that encrypts a victim’s data so it can no longer be accessed and then demands a ransom. Once the payment is made, the attacker provides a decryption key to restore access to the victim’s data. The ransom amount can vary widely, ranging from a few hundred dollars to millions.
Change is never easy, but if you manage it with the right approach rebranding can, and should, be one of the most exciting and rewarding projects your business will undertake. Done right, you will give your team, your clients, and your prospects a compelling new reason to engage!
