Yes, it can.... Last month, something unsettling happened in Kolkata. Surya Shakti Infotech Pvt Ltd, a company that handles online admissions for several colleges, was hit by a ransomware attack. If you haven’t heard of it — it’s worth paying attention.
Because what looked like just another backend tech process suddenly turned into chaos for thousands of students and parents. And more importantly, it exposed how fragile cybersecurity still is for many organizations — especially those who don’t think they’re a target.
What Actually Happened?
Here’s the short version:
- Hackers got into the servers of this IT firm between June 15 and 25, 2025.
- They deleted student records, changed admission portals and sent fake payment.
- Several families ended up transferring money to fraudsters.
- The company had to switch servers mid-week and scramble to recover operations.
- Colleges like Scottish Church and several others relying on this platform were left dealing with angry applicants, damaged trust and a lot of questions.
The Bigger Problem
This wasn’t just a “technical glitch.”
It was a fully preventable breach that spiraled into financial fraud and reputational loss.
And it’s not limited to the education sector.
If you're running a business — whether it's a SaaS company, a digital agency, or a growing startup — your laptops, mobile phones, and cloud servers are under constant threat. The tools you use daily can become your weakest link.
Let's see how our company "ipingU" can help you to protect your devices?
Here’s where endpoint security comes in. Think of it like a personal bodyguard for every laptop and device your team uses — quietly blocking malware, phishing emails, or ransomware before they do damage.
With a solution like noWos Endpoint Security, here’s what you get:
✅ Blocks phishing links and fake login pages.
✅ Detects and stops ransomware before it locks your files.
✅ Keeps all devices updated and patched automatically.
✅ Lets you remotely lock or wipe stolen/lost laptops.
✅ Runs in the background — no IT team needed.
The Takeaway?
You don’t have to be a huge company to get targeted.
Hackers are looking for easy wins — and if your endpoints (laptops, mobiles) aren’t secured, you’re the low-hanging fruit.
So, don’t wait for an attack to wake you up.
Secure your team. Protect your business. And don’t let someone else’s mistake become your headline.
