Island businesses, global threats

Hotels, villa rentals, financial services, retailers and professional firms across the islands face the same scams as everywhere: business email compromise, fake invoices, hijacked WhatsApp accounts, ransomware — often with limited local IT support.

I understand island constraints: small teams, overseas vendors, tourism-driven peaks. I coordinate your IT provider, bank and staff so you can make clear decisions fast.

Vacation rentals · SaaS

Attack on a real-estate agency's management software

Situation

A vacation-rental agency loses control of its online management software: hijacked access, with a direct risk to bookings, guest data and payments.

What we did

  • Immediate account lockdown and revocation of suspicious access
  • Coordination with the software vendor
  • Review of bookings, bank details and messages sent to guests
  • Two-factor authentication and role-based access rights

Takeaway

Online software is not secure “by default”: your accounts and access rights make the difference.

WhatsApp Business · Malicious link

Business WhatsApp taken over through a corrupted link

Situation

A business owner clicks a link received by message. Their business WhatsApp is hijacked and used to solicit customers and contacts.

What we did

  • Account recovery and logout of unknown devices
  • Two-step verification turned on
  • Warning message drafted for customers and contacts
  • Check of other exposed accounts (email, social media)

Takeaway

One click is enough. Two-step verification and a habit of doubt prevent most cases.
